Btw, half of our team is out this week for the Thanksgiving weekend. Dino is 
OOF starting Tuesday. So you may not get a prompt response this week.

Subject: [IronPython] DLR Hosting Spec

As I mentioned a couple of weeks ago we've been wrapping up work on designing 
the hosting APIs and just this past week we've started implementing the new 
hosting APIs.  We'll be continuing this work off-and-on over the next few 
months so now is a great time to start collecting feedback on the design of the 
new APIs.

One thing worth mentioning is the spec is incomplete, and the text that is 
there is not final.  The conceptual introduction and the direction we're going 
is pretty solid.  However, as we review the API reference sections in detail, 
as implementation feeds back on the design, and as we gather external feedback, 
we're updating the spec and code.  The reason we're releasing this so early is 
to gather feedback on the design and functionality of the APIs.  Any feedback 
you have would be appreciated.

The new APIs will also start showing up incrementally in the next few releases 
of IronPython and the regular source drops of IronRuby.  So soon you'll also be 
test out and experiment with the bits directly.  This should give us plenty of 
time to take any feedback into consideration and update both the spec and code 
for the final DLR APIs.

We look forward to any feedback you might have!

You can grab the spec here: http://www.iunknown.com/files/dlr-spec-hosting.pdf

If anyone would like a version in Word format we can send that so you can mark 
it up w/ track changes enabled :).
