Siniy, I was aware of your implementations and have held them in high regard. The fact is you deserve to get a return for you effort. I too was paid consulting hours as I built a bespoke database and document/report generator for a Client. I certainly hope to make money in one way or another for a combination of my services and tiddlywiki solutions.
Just like you, and since we "stand on the shoulders of giants" I believe all that is expected from us is to never conceal tiddlywikis role, and share back into the community the how to and special tools we develop, This does not mean we must share back the end result, because sometimes it is private or commercial in confidence, but we should work to repay the community many times over through our contributions. Open source is a virtuous circle and I do not believe profit is wrong, as long as we remain true to the community. Thank you for sharing your story to the community. TW Tones.
