I agree that it is much less active than Python on other platforms, and in some areas it lags behind the PC, e.g. in GUI toolkits. However, if you want to try it go here: http://sourceforge.net/projects/pythonce See also the mailing list: http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/pythonce Luke Dunstan -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
