In my shul in the Heights we read from the Tikkun Leil Shavuos and the
Tikkun leil hoshana rabba - Eshkol Heidenheim eidtion [of course!]

But we did only about an hour of learning due to the elderly nature of the
congregants. So we did selections.  We went around the table and took turns
reading, and I parceled out the reading assignments.

It is intersting that yekkes do this because of its Qabbalistic overtones.
But I also have found that Yekkes do have a lot of practices based upon
Shlah as opposed to the Ari.  And the Shlah is AFAIK the orginal arranger of
the Tikkun, which Heidnheim simply fixed up after seeing the editions of his
era laden with errors.
