How should any such editions (or, apps/applications as I'd prefer to call 
them) be actual entry points?

How, practically, would these entry points be served? To build them is only 
part of the equation.

....

Here are some thoughts on the matter:

To get some synergistic effects (for findability) I think they should all 
be *hosted on the same place*. Other than tiddlywiki.com, I think *Github* 
may be the best current option. It is well known and it would allow shared 
development and, if I understand right, it can both show a resulting page 
as well as the code behind it (...right?) Anyone who knows me, knows that 
I'm a fan of TiddlySpot but it is more narrow in this sense. I would also 
think google ranks github projects higher than tiddlyspot projects.

Github also has a few built in features for findability like stars and 
search function etc. Plus Github provides an "outer format" for the 
presentation of the code so that people have or get a familiarity - e.g 
there is the brief presentation area above the 'folders' and the more 
detailed presentation area below it.

I also like very much BurningTreeC's idea with collections/packages (maybe 
"suites" is a good term?). It makes sense also from a marketing perspective 
(cross-selling <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross-selling>) where someone 
interested in an "Anki TW" is probably also interested in other study 
tools. 

Regardless if collections or single apps, we should make sure that they 
*promote 
one another*. Someone getting the "recipe db" should also get info about 
the other existing collections and editions. We could perhaps even have a 
common "promo plugin" that contains tiddlers with descriptions and links to 
all the other projects.

Anyway - to "actually make this be real as opposed to hypothetical" I think 
one of the first steps is that bit about Github. Otherwise we're in the 
same situation that we are with for plugins. Github is of course not one 
central place, but it has some resemblance. Or - now talking to those 
versed in Github - what do you say abou tthis point? Does it make sense?
