''[escargo] 30 Jul 2003'' - The wildopensource URLs are apparently intermitant.

[Larry Smith] Wild Open Source recently changed servers.  The new IP address is still being
propogated through DNS, but the given urls are correct and should work.

With persistence I was eventually able to get the source. Still, I want to know:
Are there any mirror sites for Android?

[Larry Smith]    No.

(Thanks to [lv] for checking the problem I was having.)

[lv] i don't know of any mirrors - few tcl packages have mirrors available.

[TkXext], [TKReplay],
and [Hemang Lavana]'s rarely-maintained RecordnPlayTclTk [http://www.cbl.ncsu.edu/~lavana/RecordnPlayTclTk-1.01b.zip]
have some of Android's capabilities.
