[REPORT] Tcl

## Description:
The mission of Tcl is the creation and maintenance of software related to
Dynamic websites using TCL. Apache Tcl is home to the Tcl-Apache integration
efforts. The purpose of our project is to combine the power of the Apache
web server with the capabilities of the mature, robust and flexible Tcl
scripting language. Currently only the Apache Rivet project is actively
maintained.

## Project Status:
Current project status: Ongoing.
Issues for the board: None.

## Project Activity:
rivet.3.3.0 was released on 2026-07-30, which supports Tcl 9.x and Tcl 8.6.
Then, on 2026-09-05 rivet-3.3.1 was released, which contains fixes for a few
incompatibilities that emerged as Tcl9 channels don't accept -encoding 
binary as
option and this breaks uploading files to channels. A test was added to 
check
this sort of regressions.

## Community Health:
The mailing lists have been more active than usual in this reporting period,
mainly due to the two releases and some usage questions related to porting
code from Tclhttpd to Apache/Rivet.
