Considering that it might not even be released, I for one would not focus on IronPython at all... Quoted from http://www.xml.com/pub/a/2004/03/31/pycon.html: "Alas, Hugunin is not releasing this implementation, which he calls IronPython, until (or unless?) he can figure out how to complete it, which I took to mean until or unless he can figure out how to have that development funded. That's too bad, especially since it means that his performance claims cannot be duplicated, and others who are interested cannot contribute to IronPython. One of the main areas of performance increase in IronPython is in user defined functions, which can be many times faster in IronPython than in CPython."
