Based upon info in an AUTHORS file [0] for a different project by the user cznic, I think there is indeed some kind of connection with nic.cz
But I believe, based upon my membership on the GoNuts group / mailing list, that this is mostly the work of one individual, Jan Mercl (he is quite active in GoNuts) — as also stated in the previously mentioned AUTHORS file, and in the AUTHORS file for the port of Tcl that is the subject of the OP [1].
I have used some of his non-transpiled code/projects in my own Go projects in the past. He seems to be a very solid coder, often happy to share his views in GoNuts, and also frequently reviews others' code too.

Is "ported" the right term here? It know the repo's README says "CGo-free port", but this is the C version of TCL transpiled from C to Go (see the ~13MB .go files per platform in the "lib" directory). Which is a very cool idea, and the author has done the same thing with SQLite, to avoid CGo (https://gitlab.com/cznic/sqlite).
Here's a link to his C to Go translator: https://gitlab.com/cznic/ccgo
