Ciao Mat

That's interesting because it, I think, accurately represents common 
*perceptions* of TW.

For me the overriding lesson is that *fragmentation of our resources* 
continues to be a, if not *the*, major issue.

So, for instance, whilst a recent Twitter post is accurate and reflects 
some of the issues ...

I love tiddlywiki, but it reminds me a lot of e.g. emacs: more of an 
> ideology than a coherent, ready-to-use piece of technology. 

So much tweaking and fiddling to build really basic stuff on top of very 
> solid foundations.

... IMO there are three things in TW not sufficiently upfront that might 
well address it ...

1 -- exemplar REPLETE wiki for major fields (TW-Anthropologist; 
TW-ArtGallery; TW-Presenter etc) so potential end users *do not have to 
fiddle around* to get started in their field of interest.


2 -- a much *simpler pathway to find relevant saving options*. The easiest, 
with widest OS/browser support. Its not the issue it used to be. If 
anything its too rich now :-). (I know you worked seriously on this, but 
I'm unclear whether it worked out?)


3 -- an issue that is not about TW per se but seems pretty central. 
Coverage, publicity, information in resource listings *not* in the TW 
Community.


I'm aware (3) is a bit vague :-). Quite how to do it is maybe part of the 
issue on outreach?

Best wishes
