And, as you note, anyone who wants to add things needs to become a "member" to the repository. And would plugin makers even *want *to host their plugins there, in someone elses repository?

(Has anyone volunteered?) And it still means one has to be a "member" to add to it.

Without official and prominent endorsement it is very tough to persistently communicate anything to the community. It is/was the same problem for Erwans Community Search <http://erwanm.github.io/tw-community-search/> which even aggregates new plugins and updates semi-automatically! If nobody hears about it, things die. But this is also why my suggestion has a practice to announce the updates in one perennial thread. It only takes one message in a thread for it to be brought to attention again. > I can't help but notice that the tiddlymap is not mentioned even on the > top of this forum, even though reddit and twitter, arguably much less > useful, are mentioned. > Good point! @moderators - ? <:-) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group.
