I've got some comments on your "ultimate goal" down below, but I wanted to respond to some of the earlier things as well, first.

It's still unclear what their plans are (since nobody is talking) but they have successfully done the migration to new hardware, monitored by someone who appears invested and interested, so I guess things will carry on in some form of support. The concern I would have is whether there will be any active development. > Tank seems very promising - and I'm sure that Chris will take it far - > again it is a project in heavy development and I don't have the needed time > or ressources to setup my own Tank on shared ressources at our school atm. > On the other hand I'm sure Chris would help me out if I invested some time > in a local project with Tank. > I'm using Tank every day now as my personal notebook, bookmarker and as an archive of my tweets. It basically works for those aspects, but you're right, it isn't yet complete (especially on the tiddlywiki sides). I am, however, making some progress on making it a bit easier for people to install their own tanks: https://github.com/cdent/tankdock But, again, will be some time before that is point and click. > Collaboration isn't really the ultimate goal here - it's more simultaneity > and syncronicity I'm striving for. > This may be a large contributor to why TiddlyWeb, TiddlySpace and Tank have never felt, to you, like quite the right fit. All of those are either primarily or significantly built by me and _a_synchronous collaboration is the driving force behind pretty much all that I create. There are two main reasons for that: * I want to enable work teams that are disjunct in both time and space. * I want the resources that are created to be available to anyone, anywhere, anytime (that is, the fruits of the labor of creating the artifacts should be available to the widest audience). That doesn't exclude the classroom setting, of course, but does de-emphasize the simultaneity aspects quite a bit. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group.
