Subject: [Tkinter-discuss] new location for John Shipman's Tkinter reference
 manual
Message-ID: <1DE9CED6-013E-4832-B260-53DCAF05958E@markroseman.com>

As many of you know, John had created a substantial and valuable reference to Tkinter prior to his retirement from New Mexico Tech in 2013. He passed away in 2017.

While it hadn?t been updated, it could still be found on infohost.nmt.edu <http://infohost.nmt.edu/> until last year, when some sort of reorg permanently shut down the server. Most likely, there?s no interest from anyone who might claim a copyright to the material to pursue it further. There are a couple unofficial mirrors that have been kicking around, but nothing that appears permanent.  More background at https://bugs.python.org/issue37149

In the interest of keeping this resource available on a more permanent basis, I?ve placed a copy on the TkDocs site:

	https://tkdocs.com/shipman/ <https://tkdocs.com/shipman/>
	
If you maintain web pages that link to the original site, you?re more than welcome to link to this copy. 

Mark
