IronPython: The Road Ahead

Mr. Jim Hugunin (Microsoft)

Ill talk about some of the most interesting things going on with IronPython now and in the near future. This will range from cool new platforms like Silverlight that let you safely run client-side Python apps in the web browser to interesting new user-driven projects like the efforts to add support for existing C-based Python extensions to IronPython. Ill also talk about some of the harder problems our team continues to face in being true to both Python and .NET. These range from compatibility with Python 2.6 and 3k as well as figuring out how to support .NET features which seem to require language changes such as LINQ. There will also be new demos again this year showing some of the fun things you can do with Python and .NET together.

A great talk on a great topic. The Django through IPy demo with Silverlight was truly exciting. Wish the camera occasionaly showed the slides or Dino's laptop.
