=======================================================================
 Following is a list of improvements planned for coming releases
 of [incr Tcl]
=======================================================================

COMING SOON (itcl-2.1?) -----------------------------------------------
- update workshop papers to reflect newest syntax
- incorporate patches:  http://www.nici.kun.nl/tkpvm/pluspatch.html
- add virtual inheritance
- fix "configure" method to handle widget options AND public variables
  (for multiple inheritance mix-ins with ordinary itcl classes)
- add "border" type to canvas widget
- integrate with tcl7.5/tk4.1
- add "validate" and "valid" commands for type validation
- add "unknownvar" and provide access to object data members: "obj.var"
- check namespace [info class] {...} as a replacement for "virtual"
- reinstate "previous" to provide access to base class methods
- fix "auto_loadall" problem in Tcl-DP
  (Their implementation uses "info commands" to verify that a command
  has been successfully autoloaded, but absolute command names like
  "::iwidgets::fileselectiondialog" don't show up.)
