Wiki Ring Partnership
All of my contributions since October 2008 have been to the
Foswiki fork of TWiki. This is because of what I perceive as the pwning of the TWiki project by a commercial entity. If anyone is looking for support of any of my contributions to TWiki, then they can find me over at
Foswiki. I am unable to provide support through the twiki.org site (though there are probably other people who can).
For the record, I do not subscribe to "TWiki bashing", and believe that Foswiki and TWiki can coexist peacefully. There is no doubt in my mind that TWiki has great value as collaboration platform, and wish everyone working on it well. I developed a lot of extensions for TWiki over the years, and contributed to several more. Many of these extensions have had significant improvements since I moved to Foswiki. Most of these improved versions are also available for TWiki - please ask.
