I agree that if your are going to integrate some language with fossil then Jim 
Tcl is nearly an ideal fit. It is small, modular, self contained, can replace 
TH1 easily and should be licence compatible.

But... let's see a design proposal, or at least a prototype implementation. I 
think that understanding some core use cases and designing a good API is 
important.

Regarding someone's concern over Tcl vs Jim Tcl differences - yes there are 
differences, but in practice they are unlikely to be a problem. Take a look at 
the online doc http://repo.or.cz/w/jimtcl.git/blob_plain/HEAD:/Tcl_shipped.html

Cheers,
Steve
