Sure, I think that two of the three primary goals for 6.3.x will be
widespread beta testing of the wxGUI and the native MS-windows build.
The third goal would be to get all the new features since 6.2.0 out to
the hungry masses for testing.

Yes, and don't all the new features include many usability improvements and feature enhancements to the Tcl/TK GUI parts since the last stable release? I would worry that with all the talk about wxgui these are going to be a bit overlooked and people won't realise gis.m and gis_set.tcl are much improved since 6.2. E.g. things I've been involved in and know about - font selection and improved GUI location creation. I'm sure there are lots more - Michael has been pretty responsive in fixing and tidying up little issues as they come along.

For this reason alone, not including wxgui in the release is IMHO an excellent way to make the point that gis.m is still the preferred stable GUI.
