While reading an article about UsWare vs. ThemWare (via Jermolene), I’ve realized that TiddlyWiki, for me, has turned into ThusWare.
While I started out as a regular user, the more I code for and care about TiddlyWiki, the less I end up actually using it.
That of course carries the risk of losing touch with regular users’ needs, so I’ll need to get back to that original spirit. The first step in doing so will be to re-organize my diverse collection of TiddlyWiki documents — something that I’ve been wanting to do for ages, actually.
I’ll report any findings here, so watch this space!

A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away…
Seriously though, I simply can’t remember.
It also depends on your definition of “my own itch” — you might well say that my drive is perfectionism, turning almost every single issue into such an itch.

FND,
It occurs to me that if we get this templating business working, you could use TW to manage your website thus beefing up your “UsWare” cred.

Don’t tempt me, Jon – I have so far successfully resisted the urge to create an all-new theme for this blog, though only barely so. The prospect of not having to fiddle with PHP might weaken my resolve…
