Hello,

This post is just to *gather some attention* to the development of the 
couchadaptor 
for TW <https://github.com/wshallum/couchadaptor>.
Some months ago, I spend some time trying to understand couchdb and 
pouchdb, which was a frustrating task (FAIL!). Some days ago I suddenly 
check it again and now *I understand it perfectly* (I can't understand why).
With this suddenly appeared knowledge I checked the couchadaptor for TW 
that wshallum wrote. I set it up, and I saw *its great potentia*l. I made a 
couple of changes to fit my particular needs (which have been merged now 
into the main repo) and now I have two sets wikis synced. I have to say 
that this is amazing, and the developer is very open to add new 
functionality. In fact, in just two days he has merged all my pull requests 
and have implemented himself some of my suggestions, so expect cool things 
from this!!

We have plans to implement an easier way to set this up, but if anyone 
wants to test it right now I can assist him in the process. In fact, when 
all this is mature I want to write a small manual, or let the original 
author do himself if he is interested.

This has many possible implementations, not all of them are perfect right 
now, and some scenarios like offline working would need a different 
approach, but:

   -   Sync multiple files to a centralized store of tiddlers. The way I'm 
   using this right now is keeping an standalone version (html file) on my 
   phone, manually saving it through tiddlyfox to have a local copy, and allow 
   the syncadaptor synchronize the tiddlers. I have another copy of the file 
   (same html file, but with less tiddlers) that gets synced with the online 
   database. 
   -   Sync different databases to make different wikis share tiddlers. 
   Currently I don't know how to determine which sub-set of tiddlers you want 
   to sync, but cool enough.
   

This is *EXTREMELY BETA. *The reason I'm talking about it here is because I 
want the talented people that visit this group to raise their point of 
view, ideas, questions and maybe collaborating to the development.

I found CLOUDANT to be the best choice to test this out. They have a very 
good free plan and accept CORS request by default (needed for working with 
a standalone version of TW)

Regards.
