Hi Paris Excellent ! That is a great step forward ! There is a definite need to > address the mobile tools, smarphones and tablets. >

Then the model is to expose that functionality as a service from Federatial. People who want to customise the service would be able to pay for the privilege. In the past few years, the main thrust of my work on TiddlyWiki has been to get to the point of the basic functionality that was eventually released last September. I had to work on things like TiddlyFox and TiddlyDesktop in order to keep the ecosystem working, but my focus was implementing the basic functionality of standalone TiddlyWiki.
