No. The "core player" in this is Jed/inmysocks. He has made the core 
plugins and the current only application, i.e the Discussions plugin, as 
well as the wizard to set up a twederated wiki. None of which is officially 
released yet. I have mostly made tweaks and additions to his stuff. I hope 
the core will soon be taken to a point where it has a solid interface 
(API?) so that it is easy to build on it, but this is Jed-stuff so he of 
course decides when he has time for it. I have plans to also make 
documentation on the stuff easy to add, so to make building applications 
easy for anyone.

Well, first of all we're having internal debate of what the term 
"TWedration" should mean. It might come to refer only tho a specific 
website, the "main" wiki in the first TiddlyWiki network we are now 
creating. So, yes, that particular site is a kind of "central". But in 
reality, there is no central because the idea is a federated network. 
Anyone can start a network - it is merely a matter of having others follow 
your wiki, that makes a network. I guess a TW set up with the core plugins 
can be called an edition.
 

Another thing I would love to have for TW would be a possibility

Jed has briefly mentioned private networks... which if I understand right 
means networks that no one can look into without some invitation. To 
"communicate betwwn an offline private TW and a public one" doesn't quite 
make sense because if it's offline then it's offline. However you can, 
already now, have a TW that only fetches during the time it takes to fetch 
from the public one. You dont have to keep your TW online permanently. But 
then of course nobody can fetch from you.

The current implementation of TWederation is based on full TW-files. Even 
when you fetch single tiddlers, you're actually downloading the full other 
wiki temporarily into your own wiki (in a hidden iframe) and then plucking 
what you want from that downloaded copy, thanks to some js methods. So it 
is not "Tiddler-by-Tiddler".

That said, el grande Danielo is currently doing loco stuff with NoteSelf. 
Who knows where that will go. I wrote a question just the other day if it 
would be possible to somehow use this technology in combinnation with 
TWederation ideas. This is way beyond my level though.
