We intend Tcl/Tk 8.4.19 to be the final 8.4.* releases. The current stable releases of Tcl/Tk are 8.5.2, and development has begun on Tcl/Tk 8.6. It is possible that a bug fix of great enough importance or severity might prompt a release of 8.4.20, but there is no plan for that at the moment. Even that level of support will fade away quickly." - Tcl/Tk 8.4.19 Release Announcement April 18, 2008
