Hello Maitre
My name is Mo and I am the project administrator for Jacl and Tcl Blend.
It is true that there has not been a new release of Tcl Blend or Jacl for
some time, but that does not mean the project is not being maintained.
There will be a new release soon, likely by the end of next month. There
have only been a couple of Tcl Blend related fixes since 1.3.1 was released,
they were not too critical, and they have been available in the CVS head
for some time. For the most part, the main problem people run into
with Tcl Blend is getting the PATH and CLASSPATH set correctly so that
it actually loads.
As far as using Tcl Blend in your project, you should feel secure that
Tcl Blend is going to be around and will be maintained for a long time to
come. The first release was almost 8 years ago, it is quite mature by now.
If you need any further assistance, please feel free to post to this list.
cheers
Mo DeJong
