I think concrete examples help.

My use case. I like to try promote  TW (though promotion is not on your 
list :-) on Twitter because its effective and Twitter I know well. There is 
an infinite listening audience there. I am doing 7,000% less than I could 
because every bl**dy TW resource I want to point to I have to research, 
find the address for documentation and the install,  know if the author 
needs acknowledging on Twitter (i.e. are on Twitter or not) etc, find them 
there, craft a post, check it.

*PLEASE give me standardly laid out tiddler for every resource worth 
posting about ...*

1 - download address
2 - documentation address(es)
3 - support address
4 - author address(es)
5 - data of release or version # if available
6 - description

Then recycling info over Twitter would be a doddle and we could begin to 
dance it. 

Ideally I'd like to generate a resource list from a Tiddler set of, say, 
600 resources, output it to a Twitter robot poster and leave it get on with 
it for six months at a time. Then I can concentrate on responding to 
questions about them, not the hand-crafting of them. 

As is its unviable. *And a consequence is TW is not getting  the important 
exposure it deserves.*

Right now I'm looking to use David Gifford's TiddlyToolmap, since its the 
most comprehensive list around. But that is huge work as the entries don't 
come up in a browser in any standard way (as there is NO standard way 
defined for listing a resource). That is NOT usable for a wider audience 
who need a standard approach so it doesn't get confusing. So I still have 
to check every entry and re-write it. That's too much to do often.

Regarding your own depiction of example scopes ... IMO I think its 
important to define the Final Usage of "Data" as precisely as possible in 
order to layout what you talking about in practice--down to the level of 
fields and whatnot. I think your list may be currently too broad...

Mat ...

   - contribute code to e.g Github (probably via an API)
   - co-develop TW stuff without e.g Github
   - collectively build repositories (for e.g plugins)
   - collectively build documentation
   - discuss TW stuff
   - discuss non-TW stuff

Delimited basic resource finding I suspect is critical across the board at 
the moment? (Not saying no to anything else, just trying to find a viable 
handle to work forward from.)

Just thoughts
