Not maintained at all. This is the charme of tcl/tk at work here, the black 
magic that it is makes nobody want to make a commitment to the stuff. :-)

In the past, every once in a while somebody has submitted/committed an update 
here or there, but nobody ever picked up maintainership. You can check out 
who submitted/committed what in FreeBSD's cvsweb.

However, tcl83/84, itk, itcl and iwidgets are a pretty broad base. You might 
want to get a clearer idea first where the problem is located before you go 
sending out questions to people.
