Jed, If you look at:
- issues on github - long abandoned contributions/plugins dying slow deaths on google groups - experiences trying to get a new person to try TW I'd say there is quite a bit of evidence of "barrier to entry" in many senses. Just as an example, look at: - all of the conversations Evan Balster had in this group, his plugin, and this PR: https://github.com/Jermolene/TiddlyWiki5/pull/3072 - All of Tobias' PR: https://github.com/Jermolene/TiddlyWiki5/pulls/tobibeer Both Evan and Tobias are "inactive" right now, and there is no clear plan on what to do with all of their excellent work. All I am saying is that a project like this, that we all love an appreciate, should be in the best possible position to take advantage of highly skilled people* giving limited amounts of time.* On Thursday, November 29, 2018 at 9:24:21 AM UTC-6, Jed Carty wrote: > > I don't understand the comments about Jeremy having a high degree of > ownership.
