Subject: Dr. Dobb's Tcl-URL! - weekly Tcl news and links (Oct 30)
From: Andrej Vckovski <andrej.vckovski@netcetera.ch>

    This week's big news was certainly the acquisition of Ajuba
    Solutions by InterWoven. Check out the *long* thread on this issue,
    and also the position statement of the TCT (Tcl Core Team) as well
    as a front-page on Linux Weekly News.

    Mark Harrison argues why to include [incr Tcl] into the Core Tcl
    distribution. He has submitted a "TIP" (Tcl Improvement Process)
    request.

For the Newbies:
    Tcl's powerful channel system allows various channel-specific
    options to be set or queried with the general fconfigure
    command. Those channel-specific options, however, are not
    documented in the fconfigure manual entry but rather with the
    command that creates that type of channels, e.g., socket.
