## in case this one hits the maillinglist a second time, i apologize! 
althoug i sent it to the mailinglist a few days ago, it never came back to 
my account, so i don't know wheter it has been delivered.


hello everyone, 

i just want you to know about a little project i`ve been spending the 
last weeks with. 

With Strophe.js, a wonderfull library for XMPP over HTTP in Javascript I 
hacked a Jabber client and a PubSub Client into TiddlyWiki. I was 
dreaming of TiddlyWIki as a Client for a distributed, open social 
Networks, using XMPP and PUBSUB. The Plugin Architecture of TiddlyWiki 
could make such a project very flexible (you don't need to programm a 
Calendar, use Reminderplugins, use RevisionsPlugin and so on), but on 
the other hand the whole javascript thing is a big security problem. You 
could also use tiddlywiki locally to sync your Social information ... 

The code is badly written, because i'm not an experienced programmer and 
this was my first JS project. I split the code, inserted some comments 
and created a git repository: 

https://github.com/ziprandom/boshPlugins<http://www.google.com/url?sa=D&q=https://github.com/ziprandom/boshPlugins>
 

i also put the pre-Alpha thing to tiddlyspot, so you can play around 
with it, and tell me, what you think of it. 

http://xmppwiki.tiddlyspot.com<http://www.google.com/url?sa=D&q=http://xmppwiki.tiddlyspot.com>(i
 don't guarantee for security) 

unfortunately my plans came to a halt, as ejabberd's pubsub server is 
missing some key functionalities needed for a social network, namely: 
publisher verification (items posted to a pubsub node are posted 
anonymously, author tags can easily be faked). and the publish-only 
affiliation, allowing someone to post, but not to edit or view (INBOX) 
items on a node. 

i hope the buddycloud channel-server will soon improve. 
yours 
ziprandom.
