Safe doesn't like releasing release dates, primarily because they have a habit 
of changing when, say, someone decides that rich geometry support isn't 
polished enough for general release yet.
 
If you're just starting out, I would strongly suggest starting with Python 
instead of TCL.  It's a very "hip" language right now, and as such there are a 
lot of resources and third party libraries out there that you can leverage.

Some of the great new Python features appear to be in the most recent beta.
 
TCL+FME is currently better documented, but I suspect that this will change 
fairly quickly.

Subject: [fme] Re: String Query/Grepper question



Good afternoon,

     Many thanks for your reply. I have two questions resulting from
this. #1--Do you know yet when the 2007 beta version will be official?
#2--Does anyone know of a good source of guidance in constructing TCL
scripts? I have not used them before.

Regards,
Jamison D. Leach
