Gustaf: are you willing to release this package in CVS?

Sure. First it should run without much tweaking,
then it should be splitted into two parts (xotcl
tread handling should not be part of a request
monitor), then adding some configuration options
and finally put it into cvs... and well, the docu
should be improved, and we have to find a way to
integrate the docs with the api browsers.

For the first part, Zoran has released a version
of libthread 2.6 that has the configuration
problems fixed (called 2.6.1). With that
the thread issues like the ones from Orzenil
should be resolved (got a positive feedback from
him).

http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/tcl/

There is a version with improved functionality
(e.g. recording site switching, user tracking):

Jade: after some coordination with Gustaf he helps me to get xotcl-stuff package working. I think features included in xotcl-stuff-0.4 are very useful and Gustaf is working on it to get it better finding a way to document xotcl classes/objects/methods similar to ad_proc and add parameters to the package.

Thanks, Gustaf.

I am working now in a brief tutorial about how Gustaf help me to install requirements for xotcl-stuff and soon i will post it in this forum. Maybe other people could try it.
