BJ,

That would work better than anything I have come up with, but there are 
still some problems. Like the tiddlers $:/SiteTitle and $:/SiteSubtitle 
where it wouldn't be unreasonable to put something that has a different 
license. Now that I am thinking about it every example I can come up with 
as a potential problem could be avoided using transclusions.

I think that if possible adding an exemption for modifications made to 
tiddlers using built-in modification mechanisms like $:/SiteTitle and 
$:/SiteSubtitle should be included. That would just be for a situation like 
someone writing and publishing a book in TiddlyWiki not having to worry 
about if they still have the copyright for their title when they put it in 
$:/SiteTitle.

I guess plugins are easy to define as the shadow tiddlers included in the 
plugin and modifications of those tiddlers would be dealt with however the 
license for the plugin states. Plugins that modify the tiddlers tagged as 
the release on github would be modifying them so that is covered by the 
tiddlywiki license and if an author really wanted to use a separate license 
they could split their plugin into two parts, one with the core 
modifications and one with only the parts that they created with whatever 
license they choose. Anything else could be considered wiki content and 
would have whatever license the user gives it. I think that if we can make 
these distinctions than each tiddler could have its own license in the 
extreme case.

Jeremy,

I will look around a bit to see if I can find anything like that. That sort 
of precedent would make this much easier.
