Hi,
I'm sorry to read this. Unfortunately, even if unintended, wining reflects
poorly on all of us.

Subject: Making TK accessible?
I don't know if some of you remember Octavian, or if he's still on this
list. To make a very very very long flame-filled thread shorter, he's
basically screaming and yelling on the python list about discrimenation
and TKInter not being accessible. Having not ran anything TK-like in
Windows, I'm curious what the deal with this is. How could TK be mmade
more accessible? His solution was to rip it out of the STDLib and
replace it with WX, which won't end up happening for a few reasons, at
least not any time soon. So, I want to try to talk to the TK folks,
maybe jump in the trenches if I can and help code/make things more
accessible. Can someone knowledgable about this give me some input on
what needs to be done?

Thanks,
Ty
