<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">On behalf of the IronPython team, I'm happy to announce the first (and<br>
probably only) release candidate for IronPython 2.7.2. Only<br>
showstopping bugs will be fixed before the release.<br>
<br>
You can download IronPython 2.7.2 RC from<br>
<a href="http://ironpython.codeplex.com/releases/view/81331" target="_blank">http://ironpython.codeplex.com/releases/view/81331</a>.<br>
<br>
Like all IronPython 2.7-series releases, .NET 4 is required to install<br>
it. Installing this release will replace any existing IronPython<br>
2.7-series installation.<br>
<br>
Unlike previous releases, the assemblies for all supported platforms<br>
are included in the installer as well as the zip package. IronPython<br>
2.7.2 RC includes support for .NET 3.5, .NET 4, Silverlight 4,<br>
Silverlight 5, Mono for Android 4.0, and Windows Phone 7.5. Check the<br>
"Platforms" directory for the required assemblies. Any feedback on the<br>
supported platforms, especially for Android and Windows Phone, is<br>
greatly appreciated. For 2.7.2, the mobile platforms should be treated<br>
as previews, and expect them to change for 2.7.3.<br>
<br>
The biggest improvements in IronPython 2.7.2 are support for the<br>
zipimport module, thanks to Alex Earl, and the sqlite3 module. The<br>
pyc.py compiler can now generate standalone executables by embedding<br>
the IronPython assemblies. Many other bugs have been fixed as well.<br>
<br>
IronPython 2.7.2 RC 1 is also available on NuGet. To add it to your<br>
project, run Install-Package IronPython -IncludePrerelease (and<br>
Install-Package IronPython.StdLib -IncludePrerelease if you want the<br>
standard library as well) from the Package Manager Console. Because<br>
it's a prerelease package, it won't show up in the Package Manager UI.<br>
<br>
The final release of IronPython 2.7.2 is currently set for March 11.<br>
