The "Clone Don Porter" Project aims to fund full-time resources to perform work under the guidance of a Tcl Core Team member.
The goal of this project is to accomplish tasks that facilitate dgp's continued efforts to improve Tcl. The project will run for a minimum of 30 days and will continue as long as there is sufficient funding and available resources. The work queue will be curated directly or indirectly by dgp. Coordination and communication will occur primarily in the Tcl Chatroom.
Funding will be solicited from individuals and other entities with an interest in Tcl.
Please voice your confidence in or support for this project here!
APN I'm all for this project but sadly, can only offer moral, not financial, support! Good luck with getting the backing.
DEC Could this be funded via Patreon?
SYStems 2018-05-07: Can we add a Tcl/Tk modern IDE to that list :)

SYStems let's do it then :)
APN One performance enhancement I would like, if you are taking RFE's, is faster calls to commands implemented in C extensions. They are currently significantly slower than bytecoded commands.
