Information about the mailing list appears here [L1 ].

"There will be some significant work on a next generation Tk in 2004." Jeffrey Hobbs [L2 ].

Is the "Tk Revitalization Home" [L3 ] Mark set up no longer where work is done [L4 ]? How can a Wiki go stale?

George Peter Staplin: The ProjectForum wiki went stale, because

  • "unix hackers," with good ideas, were put off by some comments, by the creator of it
  • Windows HCI standards are viewed as "good" (In reality people don't like the tiny listboxes in tiny-unresizable dialogs.)
  • cloning Windows is not fun -- or useful to most developers
  • the Tcl'ers Wiki was not used instead
  • work that pays has a higher priority

Why not transform any good ideas from that revitalization project -that staled- into tips, or packages.
