Dear Massimo, thank you for the reply. There is only one real error which is a Typo (the first in the list). I propose that you give me svn access and I will correct what I think is ok.
giving you svn commit privilege is tantamount to accept you as commiter for Apache Rivet, which implies a number of formal steps to be taken, including a vote to be held on priv...@tcl.apache.org and the subscription of a formal statement to be sent to the Apache Software Foundation (when I did it back in 2007 I had to fax it!).
David steered the whole process and he's supposed to do it even now, because he's formally the interface of the Apache Tcl projects to the Foundation.
I would be glad to propose you as committer if you plan to contribute more or less stably to the project in the foreseeable future. Undergoing the whole process for just a commit wouldn't make sense.
What is the minimum TCL version required - Tcl 8.4.0 ? -Harald
There is a package (Calendar) which wants 'dict', so it works provided you have the backport of the command for 8.4. I proposed a couple years ago to recommend 8.5 for the stable (2.0) release of Rivet.
Definitely code in 'trunk' requires Tcl >= 8.5.10 because this is the patchlevel release where Tcl changed the way shared library are loaded. I filed a bug on this issue and Jan Nietmans supported the change I proposed (symbols are no nore exported as global now when a shared lib is loaded). This made possible to safely call 'package require' from within mod_rivet to packages containing the new reorganized command set of Rivet.
