Topics, Talks and Catering
PS I am rather new at this (TUGing), so what does every one want? If enough people show up, a couple of full blown presentations would be nice. Or we could keep it simple and just chat about what we do. I'll start of a list of things I've recently Tcl-i-fied, but please add things you have done or would like to discuss.
AM Let me add the things that I use Tcl for:
AN An OpenACS user. As a physician, I TCL at application-level. I'll ask my brother to join, Pascal.
HN [L3 ] I'm the Portal Developer for Tiscali Plaza (used to be Sonera Plaza)
- PowerDNS and -Mail lets you keep your zone files (DNS) and users (mail) in a RDBMS
("MySQL", Postgres, Oracle or most other) and info can be updated by a sql statement
- There is an interface (PowerAdmin) but it is in PHP.
Would like to see some peoples ideas on 'porting' to TCL
JR A typical TCL user, for quite some time now. Currently using TCL for test automation. Or more exactly, i am encouraging others to use it. And being quite succesful at that :-) Related to this i am interested in the following topics:
JCW - Been doodling with scripting for some 4 years, mostly Tcl. Decade of C++ before that, decade of C before that. I make my living doing consulting & development, working from home. Interests:
RA2 Please publish on this wiki the presentations afterwards. There are two presentations I'd love to read:
* Idea/Request: Adding a Tk Gui to a C++ application.
* Using SQL databases from Tcl.
Please make it simple so we can all understand. Use real examples.
I'd love to attend but I don't think I could learn Dutch in time for December the 15th. :-) I wish you a lot of success!
