Dave, I think the G10 TW.Apps summit is a great idea. Think about it this way: Linux (which powers half the internet) is developed by a fairly decentralized group of coders and contributors. What we need is a good project manager, and coders willing to cooperate around pre-defined and agreed upon standards - beyond the very open and capable framework TW itself provides as a basis - towards pre-determined usage goals. Such a group takes nothing away from TW, which it uses as a foundation, but it has the potential to extend this framework in a way the TW project itself isn't likely to go: "TW.Apps: built on Tiddlywiki". That's ok, it's just a different set of desired outcomes, using the same underlying framework.
Allow me to copy this from another current thread: We see other programs able to do this or that, and frequently say "TiddlyWiki can do that". In most cases, that is absolutely true - TW can do that. But it doesn't. At least not "out of the box". So many of these features require someone to code the capability, or develop a given feature, or download and test a plugin (and hope it doesn't break something else), and this is a HUGE barrier to entry and use for most people. This is why StackEdit or DynaList or similar are used so easily - they just do the things that people require for a given workflow. It's not that they're better from a tech standpoint, but they are better suited to the needs of their users, right out of the box. In my view, this is one of the biggest lessons we can learn from the "competition".
