I occasionally throw up bits and pieces here: http://sourceforge.net/projects/libtclpq/

I have a tendency to ask ''is there any compelling reason that X doesn't use Y?' where Y is often comm ... I just like minimalism, I guess.

Musings:

Wild Ideas:

Tcl Canon and Fugue
The ability to taint allocation blocks, its possible uses.
Tcl over Python a different Python parser to make it look like tcl, and can you tell the difference?

Suggestions: (I'm full of 'em)

Controversies/Rants:

what is a Project Release? What is it for? Stu and I have been robustly exchanging views on the subject, and I thought I'd jump in to misrepresent his views in that page.
Imagine a language ... unexpected side-effects of tcl's virtues.
Careful what you wish for regarding the downside of popularity.

Firsts: first mention of 'badger' on the Wiki ... damn, not even close.
