Thanks, Rich. Size is 1.7 MB, so that's not it. You're probably right--Google bots may be looking inside the tarball, seeing free software, catching on fire.

I encrypted with bcrypt and tried submitting again. If it works, I'll try my hand at fixing the wiki instructions in the next few days.

Thanks for all your help!

Hi, Rich. In the past week I sent a contribution (vbetool extension) twice to tcesubmit _at_ gmail _dot_ com, but received no reply or bounced message. The attachment is encrypted with bcrypt and only 290 KB in size.

How often do folks check that email account? It is discouraging to not get any response after investing the time and effort to make a contribution :(

Hi GNUser
Typically it takes anywhere between 1 and 2 weeks to show up in the repository.

If its for piCore it will take longer.

Hello Forum,


Sure this forum is always helpful. 

Although i know almost nothing of Linux.... TCL is pretty reasonable for new users.

Sometimes i try to help with arbitrary services in the cloud (links to get leverage of free computer resources for the forum.)

most regards.

I am still interested in making donations--TCL is a marvel and deserves financial support.

If the developers ever change their mind and start accepting donations, please let us know in this thread.

I wouldn't mind either - even if it was just a mere show of respect ..

We can't leave out thanks to the mirrors.  This recent one from the University of Calgary in Alberta, Canada

http://forum.tinycorelinux.net/index.php/topic,21317.0.html

has been frequently my first link when letting apps search for the fastest mirror.  Thanks to the ops at University of Calgary!
