don't like that tone. I like Python, I like the addition of .NET and I liked
the way that IronPython *was* licensed.
Microsoft is paying for it, they can do whatever makes sense for them. You're lucky that it's as liberally licensed as it is!
I have no problems with them requiring the latest and greatest .NET runtime, especially because it has features designed to support use cases like IronPython... and will grow them as necessary *because* Microsoft is supporting IronPython.
If you liked it better with the old license and old requirements, fork the old one.
