A basekit is another term for tclkit-like technology. Since the creator of Tclkit asked that developers not add or remove extensions from a tclkit file, one might assume that if they call their file a basekit then they could, in theory, offer variants. Perhaps dqkit might be called a basekit? The first use of the term I recall was from ActiveState.
List of Basekits (with comparison to Tclkit)
[anyone want to build a table that lists what extensions are in each basekit?]
