Folks,

For those of you will the decade or so long experience with tiddlywiki you 
may recall that the google forums are one of tiddlywikis strengths because 
the policy has being ask and we will help. It does not demand you to search 
for your answer. I believe this approach should remain, but yes more self 
serve should be available. TWC used to have a tiddlywiki.org wikimedia if I 
remember correctly, but we have being naturally reluctant to introduce 
another wiki to document our wiki.

I have every intention of *constantly document[ing] usage*. and at least do 
so in my own notes.

However I have "a life" that limits how much I can commit to Tiddlywiki (to 
be honest already too much, its an obsession)

As my expertise increases the more confident I can see both the questions 
and the answers, and thus contribute to the documentation. But it also 
drives me to participate in issues, changes and discussions for the 
development of tiddlywiki. A lot of us are contributing to the future of 
tiddlywiki rather than the present moment documentation of tiddlywiki.

As I said I and many others have considerable resources and documentation 
that is not necessarily polished sitting offline. Mohamad of late and 
others "in history" have built fantastic resources and people should be 
encouraged to leave the forum and search on the open internet for "anything 
tiddlywiki".

The truth is information ages so unless it is collected into a single 
repository that is maintained it ages and looses its accuracy.

Some regular posts to the forum on how to contribute to the documentation 
and core would help promote participation.

Regards
Tony
