None. How could it?
by providing a compatibility layer, or as Richard formulated it above,
as "simple Tcl-coded extension".

It doesn't define anything called Object or Class.
was not a class structure with Object and Class part of the TIP?

On the other hand, if the itcl community is happy with itcl, why to
force this into a new implementation? The existing Tcl extensions won't
stop working, only because new code is implemented.

True. Mind you, one of my motivations is to clear up the mess of ad hoc
OO systems
The situation with itcl and xotcl is different.
