I could of course mention ActiveTcl basekits and the consistent releases 
and construction.  I know that doesn't work for everyone, but ... well 
... commercial company and all that.

tcl.tk is a place where people could host something like this, but we'd 
need a commitment to keeping it up to date.  I know we've had a couple 
previous efforts not stay maintained over time (not even a long time at 
that).
