Daniel,

Last year I posted a couple of standalone/embedded builds of Wish to my
SourceForge site (http://tk-components.sf.net) because I used them in my
apps. Would it be helpful for me to continue doing this, as an
"official" place to get the build? (I skipped 8.4.15 just because of
time, and because there didn't seem to be much demand for it.) I have my
own build of 8.4.16 that I can post, but I don't want to be redundant.
Please let me know.

--Kevin
