I think this sentence is depressing:

Specially the part

we've adopted new prefixes for messages, classes and variables


I find it a very poor explanation for something that breaks "all plugins 
and customisations". I would like a list of what was the previous value and 
what is the new one. On every TW release I have to spend a lot of time 
trying  how new things works. I can assume it for new features and small 
changes but not for everything. I will think really carefully if I should 
spend time and effort developing anything for TW until it comes out of this 
unstable state.

I'm pretty sure you have your reasons for do this, and I wish tiddlywiki to 
have a long life too,  but it takes me out of the scene for a long time. I 
will monitor TW closely, and I will only upgrade if there is no other 
option.

If it is possible, I would like to have the 5.0.15 nodejs version available 
somewhere.
