+themseleves in the outgoing directory and later in /dev/null. Please see
+the source code to respond to the author of any mega-widgets found here.
+
+ To place your "vote" for any new widget, please contact any [incr Widgets]

+PROPOSED WIDGETS
+---------------------------------------------------------------------------
+The following are proposed widgets as listed on SourceForge. If anyone
+has a desire to create one or more of these widgets, have at it!
+
+o - How about adding an optionbox widget for organizing optionmenus. This
+ widget would be analogous to the checkbox and radiobox widgets.
+ (SF ticket #471529)
+
+o - Could it be possible to enhance Scrolledhtml into a browser using the
+ http package included with the tcl core? (SF ticket #426759) (Note
+ from Chad - very cool idea - anyone interested in working on this?
+ Check out the SF ticket for some pointers.)
