@Jed, Thanks for the offer-- I'd like to take you up on it. I've added it to the project's wiki [1]. It will blow the minds of the locals that the first volunteer is from New Mexico and moving to Paris! The following is pasted from the wiki
The wiki is brand new, I've cloned the latest hangout TW – love that background. I wanted to start today, on the longest day of the year. The basic idea is that "wiki gardening", expressed in Ward Cunningham's Gardening Metaphor <http://tiddlywikigarden.tiddlyspot.com/#Ward%20Cunningham's%20Gardening%20Metaphor> can be combined with a community gardening project, inspired by the TiddlyWiki community <http://tiddlywikigarden.tiddlyspot.com/#TiddlyWiki%20community> and documented on aTiddlyWiki <http://tiddlywikigarden.tiddlyspot.com/#TiddlyWiki>. The larger context here is that the project is one of many planned by Alsager Placemaking Initiative <http://tiddlywikigarden.tiddlyspot.com/#Alsager%20Placemaking%20Initiative>... it is hoped that the project will help Alsager become a better place to live. It goes without saying that TiddlyWikiGarden <http://tiddlywikigarden.tiddlyspot.com/#TiddlyWikiGarden> is a "garden for the next 25 years" and it's an Open Source <http://tiddlywikigarden.tiddlyspot.com/#Open%20Source>project. It also happens to have a pond <http://tiddlywikigarden.tiddlyspot.com/#The%20Pond>, there mayeb is one lone tiddler remaining (a goldfish).... there have been sightings of Newts <http://tiddlywikigarden.tiddlyspot.com/#Newts> and a Heron. @Felix: a friend is involved a startup concerning open learning here in Manchester: I can introduce you if you like. One of the partners (there are three of them) is a physics teacher in a secondary school: I can put you in contact, they are in very early stages...
