> Kudo’s to Mr Osterhout’s long lived legacy

Tcl and Tk are fantastic, and if this is where it ended, John Ousterhout would have secured his place in history - this is only 1 piece of his contributions, though - see too:

  * Log structured file system[0]

  * parallel Make[1] (Adam de Boor from Sprite project, not JO hisself)

  * RAFT consensus protocol[2]

  * Various notable teachings [3][4][5]
