Subject: Dr. Dobb's Tcl-URL! - the weekly guide to Tcl resources (Oct 4)
Date: 6 Oct 1999 09:53:14 -0700
On behalf of the whole Tcl-URL! team I would like to extend our thanks
to Dr Dobb's Journal (http://www.ddj.com/) for becoming the first official
sponsor of the Tcl-URL! service. Their desire to sponsor our efforts can
only enhance the reputation and success of Tcl for all - Thank You.
As to the Quote of the Week - David Gravereaux and Heribert Dahms, reminded
us of a little used legal licensing style that used to be more popular in
the early days of the internet/arpanet:
"Send me a six-pack of beer and I'll wrap 'em up in an extension for ya"
or in modern double-speak
"GBL - Generous Beer License"
XModem or "The whole point of Tcl is to glue things together, not to
reinvent the wheel." [Quote from Don Libes]
