Hi Andrew, could you do the effort again (taking out the acs-tcl package) and clean it up so that:

- All procedures that are required by acs-tcl that are independent of OpenACS but somehow made it into a different directory, are moved into acs-tcl.
- All procedures in acs-tcl that rely on code in OpenACS are moved to acs-kernel.

If I'm not mistaken this should enable us to maintain an acs-tcl package that is clean of OpenACS dependend code and can be reused everywhere else. We might even upload all these enhancements to the AOLserver CVS 😊.

I'd assume if we want to make a policy out of this, we would have to TIP this, therefore it would be nice to get some feeling if people agree to be doing this. I for myself am sold to the idea and it makes a lot of sense to me (as I was always wondering why we have acs-kernel and acs-tcl and this differentiation posted by Andrew makes utter sense and should be published in guidelines).

Malte, since it's clear now that other people would like it too, yes, I'm willing to work on acs-tcl as you describe. Not right now though, and I can't give you a timeline either, as I have other things on my plate at the moment. But I'll definitely add it to my list as of now.
