Peter Salus was the initial president, or whatever we called the guy who paid bills.
The most visible tangible project of the Consortium was its 1998 publication of "Tcl Blast!", a CD-ROM full of Tcl goodies. Ubiquitous Jean-Claude Wippler was project manager for the technical work of "Tcl Blast!" [explain how this meant he herded cats regarding ports, installation models, compilers, ...]
Contemporary discussions included this [L1 ] lively thread in comp.lang.tcl.
This group is considered distinct from the Tcl Association.
