Version 14 of Tenth Annual Tcl/Tk Conference

Updated 2003-07-31 09:54:25

Organized by Clif Flynt see http://www.tcl.tk/community/tcl2003/ for details.

Occurs July 28 - Aug 2, 2003.

lv For those of us unable to be present, I hope someone takes on the recorder role and lets us know what is going on. - RS: Yes, please...

DKF I'll pop on some notes on as I make them...


MC Tue 29 July: The hotel apparently had a T1 from January through sometime in June of this year, when it was removed. The hotel has DSL, but the ISP is AOL. Currently we're using Burrow (written in Tcl, naturally) running on the Windows desktop of one of the hotel employees to tunnel out over port 80 to an HTTP proxy and irc (for the Tcler's chat) and SSH (currently to a Linux box I have, and to a machine stevel has--more mappings available upon request, and with an SSH connection you should be able to route just about anything over it, under *nix at least). We also have port 25 going to an outbound SMTP server for those that need that.

At the conference, configure your browser to use 192.168.1.100 port 80 as a proxy.

Update: as of Tuesday evening there are now two aggregated idal-up modems providing bandwidth and the proxy isn't needed.


MC Wed 30 July: Each of the tutorials has been progressively more attended. I attended Ken Jones's Tk tutorial and his thread extension tutorial, along with Clif Flynt's C extension tutorial, and stevel's MetaKit and OOMK tutorial. All were excellent. This evening about 20 of us went to a local pizza place, "The Cottage Inn", for dinner. The food was great, and the conversation good. The Poll: Argument Expansion Syntax naturally came up in conversation...


Tcl Conferences


AP It would be nice if there were actual video recordings, of the conference, for sale.

lv I would find it surprising if there were, as that tends to be a pricey conference feature and this year the goal was to keep prices to a minimum.
