Thanks, Mat, for the detailed and informative reply. I've got two distinct interests here:
First is finding a fairly complete, extensible replacement for ThinkingRock: http://www.trgtd.com.au/ I like the (dogmatic?) way that program implements GTD, but need more flexible Export options, and a fully open source project. Second is working with the latest jQuery-related TW code, in order to add TW's self-modifying features to other, more general web (and local) apps, per: http://jquery.tiddlywiki.org/twFile.html Would it make sense to try manually upgrading mGTD, d3, tbGTD, or even GTD-TW to the latest, bleeding edge TW code base? -jayseye On Sep 15, 5:43 am, Mat <matiasg...@gmail.com> wrote: > I would definitely say that mGTD is the most actively developed one. > The original GTD-TW is not actively maintained anymore, as far as I > know.
