Re: [TCLCORE] Call For Votes: TIPs #123 #137 #139
Yet more calls for votes! These ones all look fairly simple and fix minor
things that are wrong.
TIP #123: Exponentiation Operator
This adds a new [expr] operator that does exponentiation and returns a value
of a type that corresponds to the input type. It also does so using a syntax
that is easily recognizable to FORTRAN programmers.

TIP #137: Script Encoding Specification
This lets scripts and invocations of the tclsh and wish commands specify what
the encodings of scripts are via command-line flags. This is extremely
useful when working with scripts that were written in locales other than
where they were written in and strengthens Tcl's i18n support.

TIP #139: Part Publication of the Namespace API
This opens up access to the parts of Tcl's C API that deal with namespaces
and which are not somewhat controversial or likely to be altered in the
future. This corrects a long-standing hole in the documentation of the core
that dates back to Tcl 8.0!

Please send your votes to the tcl-core mailing list by 11:00 UTC one week from
today (Friday, Aug 22, [clock format 1061550000]) in the usual form. My votes
follow:
TIP #123: YES
TIP #137: YES
TIP #139: YES
Donal.
