IronPython 1.0 Beta 1

which was released at the end of last week, is "well integrated" with
the rest of the .Net programming framework and allows all .Net libraries
to be "easily" accessed by Python programmers, according to Microsoft.

Microsoft's support for Python could help the software giant attract
Unix developers to the Windows platform, as it is a commonly used
scripting language on the Unix platform, according to Salim Fadhley
