Am I correct in assuming that Tank is dependent upon TiddlyWeb? If so, might it be possible to build on Tank's capabilities, in conjunction with TW5 and TWC, to achieve an effective solution. My interest is simply that I do not have python resources at my disposal and relatively limited server admin resources. Hence I would prefer to "subscribe" to Tank.
Yes, Tank is built on TiddlyWeb + a bunch of server side plugins. It would probably be possible to use it to get the desired combination of functionality. The reason I didn't mention it directly before is because of this requirement in the original message:
Drawback is that if the user chooses a feed he can't see the version of the local installed tiddler compared to the version on the remote TW and in the list of importable tiddlers.
I didn't quite understand what that meant and how that might fit in the Tank view of the world. However, in my experience, with sufficient use of JavaScript and familiarity with the TiddlyWeb API[1] it is generally possible to do pretty much anything[2]. The crucial ingredient is effectively decomposing "anything" into lots of little tasks involving tiddlers. (For those that don't know, Tank is (yet another) tiddler hosting service: https://tank.peermore.com ) [1] http://tiddlyweb.tiddlyspace.com/HTTP%20API [2] This is now even more true with Tank, because Tank just got support (yesterday) for CORS (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross-origin_resource_sharing) which makes the resources stored on Tank more accessible. -- Chris Dent http://burningchrome.com/ [...] -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group.
