Hi Jeremy, It sounds like I didn't come across very clearly. I apologise. Hopefully this will help clarify.
Even the server and online versions download everything in few files and the core idea again is one file. I think here you are referring to the configuration where the server serves a full TW HTML file to the browser. That’s not the only configuration that is supported. I was actually referring to noteself and TW5 in the sky as well. Tank would be an exception. Perhaps I should look that one up again. I don’t understand the comparison to Mediawiki. TiddlyWiki doesn’t have the same goals as MediaWiki. Why would it? We already have MediaWiki, so I’m not interested in re-inventing it. TiddlyWiki is trying to do something different. I'm comparing it to MediaWiki because that is what I know. I would like to find a way to implement multi-user. Maybe I should broaden my horizons :) So I don't think our browser conundrum is going to be too much of a hold up. It will only change the way things work, but they can still work just as fast. I think we’re coming from the same place here: the plethora of different configurations that TiddlyWiki supports means that we can be confident that it can be adapted to keep working into the far future. That was actually the thrust of the entire email. Obviously it didn't come across very clearly. My apologies :) I was basically trying to say that is is very single file oriented (whereas MediaWiki is very database oriented) therefore it is easy to switch platforms (browsers themselves aren't going anywhere). Anything can serve one file -- especially one that can generate itself. The NodeJS system can generate almost anything. So between those two we should be good. Best wishes to you too :) I appreciate all the effort you've put into Tiddlywiki :) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group.
