The wiki at http://tiddlywiki.org/ is MediaWiki, not TiddlyWiki. This
has always been a bit of an embarassment. That wiki is also subject to
spam that without constant attention can get a bit out of hand.

When the wiki was created multi-user platforms for TiddlyWiki were a
bit thin on the ground. Now, with TiddlyWeb and TiddlySpace there is
an actively maintained multi-user platform that can easily support the
documentary purposes of the wiki.

So I'd like to propose that we being a process of migrating the
content of http://tiddlywiki.org to a space or collection of spaces on
http://tiddlyspace.com/

If people have concerns, objections or encouragement, please post
here. This is not a done deal, just a proposal, but the benefits seem
a win:

* Using tiddly-dogfood for Tiddly things
* TiddlySpace can be configured to allow members-only editing to
  prevent spam.
* The TiddlyWeb API underneath allowing multiple mode of editing,
  reuse and mashing up.

If as a group we decide to move forward with this proposal, then I
would like to suggest the follow migration style: Rather than automate
some process of copying all the content from the mediawiki server to
TiddlySpace, I think it would be far better to move content by hand
and piecemeal, leaving behind references to the new content and
editing the content as it is put into the new system. This provides a
structure upon which we can, as we do it, refresh all the content. And
a refresh is badly needed.

Thoughts?
