Re: [Tcllib-devel] TBWidget Branch (please help on cvs organisation)

[Jeff H. <je...@ac...>]

I would not not create the modified BWidget "2.0" until you actually 
have changes to implement.  Don't strip out ttk support and call that 
2.0, as that seems pointless.  If noone else steps up to support it that 
is OK, but only create a new version if you plan to push it forward.

We can live with BWidget 1.9 and TWidget 2.0.

My $.02,

Jeff
