Hi,

at last I'm able to release the plugin I announced somewhat half a year 
ago: the descendant of the IncludePlugin named SharedTiddlersPlugin [1] (as 
it finally has an ok quality to publish).

For those who is not familiar with IncludePlugin [2] - this is all about 
fetching tiddlers from other TiddlyWiki to a TiddlyWiki document to view 
and use them (as for now, without editing them). But you can go straight to 
the documentation of the new plugin to learn about it.

This first released version (1.4) is oriented on more flexible fetching and 
using fetched tiddlers as parts of the theme and got the following major 
enhancments:
* possibility to include only some tiddlers from a TiddlyWiki (the set of 
tiddlers defined by filters)
* name conflicts handling system (priority system + notifications), which 
allows, for instance, include PageTemplate so that it "substites" the one 
in the main document, be it shadowed or not
* autorefresh to get included parts of theme applied at once
* extended documentation in one tabbed tiddler (SharedTiddlersPluginInfo)
----------------
The plugin still has some quality issues, namely:
* as a "quickfix" for some unexplored bug, "missing" and "orhpans" lists 
don't account included tiddlers
* including from web doesn't work in a local TiddlyWiki -- in current 
browsers (like FF 15, Opera 12 or Safari 5) it doesn't even in 
IncludePlugin. Both use loadRemoteFile function (is deprecated, I know, but 
the recomendation in [3] doesn't change anything).
* also, the code can be made more tidy

It would be nice if you take a look at the plugin, its documentation and 
licence and share you thoughts (especially about the licence as I'm new to 
this things). It would be extra nice if suggest a clue for the 
loadRemoteFile problem.

@Jeremy
Finally, TW has problems with saving (and other permissions) in FireFox 15; 
while TiddlyFox solves the saving problem, it doesn't help with including 
which is forbidden. So Jeremy, please, if you have some time, try to fix 
this (is there a thread for feedback on TiddlyFox? I have two more 
important suggestions).
 
After some of this is solved, I'll make a "release" in the TiddlyWiki group.

There are, of'course, many plans to improve and extend the plugin, but I 
have to start sharing it at some point, I think.

Best regards,
Yakov.
