[TCLCORE] Tcl/Tk 8.6.10 Release Candidates

[Donald G P. <don...@ni...>]

Now available at

https://sourceforge.net/projects/tcl/files/Tcl/8.6.10/

are candidate files making up pre-releases of Tcl and Tk 8.6.10.

The pre-release of Tcl 8.6.10 includes pre-releases of Itcl 4.2.0, tdbc* 1.1.1, Thread 2.8.5, and another copy of sqlite3 3.29.0 (released in July) comes along for the ride too.

These will not be the release. At a minimum, release notes and changes files still require updates.

At this point I'm looking for build tests on as many platforms as you can manage, so a real release can happen soon with good confidence it isn't obviously broken.

I am also looking for any alerts from developers of Tk or the other bundled packages that the timing or contents of these snapshots of development are not a fitting state for a release. Don't be shy. If something pending should still go in, or something shaky should come out, this is the time to say so.

Please report any new troubles you encounter, particularly any that seem severe enough they should prevent release.
