I think it is a fascinating development, but it is aiming in a different direction. To a certain extent, you have to separate the Python language from the Python standard library. IronPython has the entire Python language, and it will run most (but not all) of the standard library we're all accustomed to, but the real fun of IronPython is that you have the entire .NET class framework available from Our Favorite Language. Considering all of the junk that regularly comes out of Redmond, I think that the Windows Presentation Foundation (formerly called "Avalon") is one of the most interesting things they've produced in a long time. IronPython will give me the opportunity to really dig into WPF without having to drink the C# kool-aid. -- Tim Roberts, [EMAIL PROTECTED] Providenza & Boekelheide, Inc. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
