Mark et all

Yesterday I installed CouchDB on My Windows 10 64bit, I have not got a 
noteself to connect to it yet. There seems to be a gap in the instructions 
on how to configure a tiddlywiki DB. This would allow me to look at the 
database structure that NoteSelf is using and thus determine if MySQL would 
be a practical re-invention.

As You (mark says) One way to look at this tiddler in DB is that the title 
is the key and rest is a blob this is in keeping with the concept of a 
skinny tiddler. Loads as needed.

On Couch DB there is a docker image which I intend to try on my Synology 
NAS but if you have a host that supports Docker you could build an internet 
facing CouchDB.

Unfortunately I only have a highly asymetric Internet connection with a 
small speed up to the internet so I am not in a position to host much from 
inside my LAN out to the internet, thus a desire to get a DB back end for 
TiddlyWiki hosted on the internet. I have a wholesaler/re-seller hosting 
service on cpanel

Regards
Tony
