+
+2000-07 (feature rewrite) complete rewrite of the Tcl IO channel subsystem
+to correct problems (hangs, core dumps) with the initial stacked channel
+implementation.  The new system has many more tests for robustness and
+scalability.  There are new C APIs (see Tcl_CreateChannel), but only
+stacked channel drivers are affected (ie: TLS, Trf, iogt).  The iogt
+extension has been added to the core test code to test the system.

+   (dejong, hobbs)
+
+ * Added ability to use Tcl_Obj *s as hash keys (duffin)
+
+ * New ::msgcat::mcmax function, extended ::msgcat::unknown function,
+   new ::msgcat::mcmset function (duperval, krone, nelson)
+
+ * Much improved doc SEE ALSO, NAME, KEYWORDS sections (peonitz, english)

+   (darley, melski)
+
+ * Improved string allocation growth for large strings (hintermayer,
+   melski)
+

+   enforced by Windows, it is now just cross-platform.
+
+ * partial fix for bug 2460 to prevent exec mem leak on Windows for the
+   common case (gravereaux)
+
+ * New non-panic'ing mem allocation functions Tcl_AttemptAlloc,
+   Tcl_AttemptRealloc, Tcl_AttemptSetObjLength (melski)
+
+ * Updgraded tcltest to version 2 with completely new, enhanced syntax.
+   This provides backwards compatability with tcltest v1. (hom)
+
+ * Fixed overaggressive stat'ing of files in Windows glob command (results
+   in significant speed increase for glob) (hobbs)
+
+ * Added "ja_JP.eucJP" to "euc-jp" encoding mapping (takahashi)
+
+ * Corrected excessive mem use when info exists was called on a
+   non-existent array element (patton)
+
+ * New Tcl_SetMainLoop function that enables defining an event loop for
+   tclsh.  This enables Tk as a truly loadable package.
