TkDND News

The project TkDND switches from CVS to subversion. The old code base of TkDND 1.x will remain hosted under CVS. However development will continue under the subversion repository, where the latest version of TkDND 2.0 alpha 6 has been imported.

release shortly...

This release features more complete windows support (i.e. by

As always, various bugs were also fixed.
