Has anybody considered making an official Wikipedia-esque page where 
anybody can come along and add documentation, edit, or expand it if they 
feel like it? I mean, it worked for Wikipedia. They have a whole world full 
of people contributing to it, and all they had to do was set the site up 
and allow people to edit it. This isn't just the case with Wikipedia, but 
with plenty of other wiki sites, some topic-specific like Wikia.

There could even be a section for plugins and extensions where people could 
add code to their own plugins/extensions, which would help those learning 
about the inner-workings of TiddlyWiki, by example.

I don't know if anyone's proposed this, but it seems very workable to me. 
It also doesn't require some vast organizational paradigm shift to happen 
in order to implement. No groups need to be formed, people don't need to 
meet up or chat or take meeting minutes. You just set up the wiki and then 
let everybody do whatever work they can. Have two sections -- one for 
Classic and one for TW5 (because *both* are still in use). Then, just let 
people contribute.

I mean, you need the hosting space, but after that, the community will take 
over.

That's my thinking, anyway,
Hiru
