Dear Tcl/Tk team,

here is the report of the Tcl/Tk biweekly telco:
1t of June at 12:00 UTC
(one hour earlier than last meeting)
Duration: 1 hour
At: https://meet.jit.si/TclMonthlyMeetup

Top 1) Release calender (TIP 713)
Current release calender:
May	9.0.4

- 2 Issues
- Thread outdated: may be updated to 3.0.6 - fixes a memory leak - Don 
may decide, small change
- thread package autoconf now 2.73. RHEL9 uses 2.69 -> could it be 
downgraded?

   Ok the check for 2.73 is to harsh.
   Don't do any check and regenerate.
