More seriously, make inquiries at comp.lang.tcl (Tcl/Tk) if all else 
fails.

Meanwhile, start with the deja.com power search replacement:

    http://groups.google.com/advanced_group_search

to search comp.lang.tcl for relevant keywords.

Also, here is the latest links-rich "Dr. Dobb's Tcl-URL! - weekly Tcl
news and links" posting. (It's a little long, but I'm including it all
to also show an example of what we would someday like to see for
Ruby. The links you will want to check out are near the end.)

=====================================================================
From: Bill Schongar (bschonga@cisco.com)
 Subject: Dr. Dobb's Tcl-URL! - weekly Tcl news and links (Feb 14) 
 Newsgroups: comp.lang.tcl
 Date: 2001-02-14 08:43:27 PST 

QOTW from Rick Hedin:  "... After spending a year messing with Java,
we moved the project to Tcl/Tk.  Guess what?  It works."

Please note: Due to Google's purchase of Deja.com on February
12, links to articles are in a bit of a mess. Rather than put in
links which may be dead in a week, this week's focus is on
things that can be summarized and links that shouldn't go
away any time real soon. As soon as links are happier, we'll
put 'em back in. Thanks for your patience...

    Thinking of forming your own country? Well, you'll need a flag.. 
    so why not try a Tcl extension that makes one for you? Richard
    Suchenwirth put up the following Wiki page to show how:
        http://purl.org/thecliff/tcl/wiki/1223.html
 
    Images not working right through the HTTP package? George Petasis
    has a possible solution: binary scan. 
        http://deja.com/getdoc.xp?AN=725052237

    Tcl-Url important note: You may notice that links to original
    articles no longer points to Deja.com - they were purchased
    February 12, 2001 by Google.com, and at the moment there's a
    question as to where the data will end up. Apologies for any
    bad links in the interim...

    in case you were running into incompatibility problems...

    Wondering where Jeff Hobbs went? He's still the Tcl Guy, but now he's
    at ActiveState. Good news for Tcl availability and visibility, see the
    ActiveState website in a week or two for details:
        http://www.activestate.com

    Miguel Sofer has eye-popping early results from a new optimizer.
    Stay tuned for more on this subject.  Also, Donal Fellows reported
    a "win-win" patch for those working with large collections of small
    in-memory strings (like the ordered list of all characters in a
    byte stream).
 
http://sourceforge.net/patch/?func=detailpatch&patch_id=103709&group_id=10894
 
    When is 8.4 going to be released? What about 9.0? Well, the former is
    a pretty stable alpha, and may soon be moving to stable beta with
    Jeff's new "100% Tcl" job. The latter, well, it may be a while before
    enough major features make it worth the new designator of "9.0".

    Iain B Findleton announces an update to the Image 1.0 package for
