I spent 4 years back around 2000 developing on a CMS that used TCL as the underlying language. It was mostly a hate/hate relationship. More for the CMS than TCL itself, but that can be said about any CMS.

I worked for a startup in the late 1990s that had a reseller agreement with Vignette. If I recall Vignette was going for something like a million dollars a site license. I took one look at it and ended up rolling our own TCL-based CMS in case the Vignette deal went south. Well I left, Vignette went south and the company ended up using my CMS.
