It looks like Windows 8 doesn't support UWP, but I don't know if Windows 8 is long for the world with Windows 10 upgrades being more-or-less mandatory.</div><div><br></div><div>If UWP is the future* I'd prefer to focus on that, but until this whole landscape settles I'm not going to make any major decisions. I kind of understand DNX/CoreCLR thanks to <a href="http://blog.marcgravell.com/2015/11/the-road-to-dnx-part-1.html">http://blog.marcgravell.com/2015/11/the-road-to-dnx-part-1.html</a>, but I have no clue how that relates to UWP, let alone Xamarin (which in my mind is more important than anything else besides plain ol' desktop/server CLR).</div><div><br></div><div>- Jeff</div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Tue, Nov 24, 2015 at 7:34 AM, Wayne Keenan <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:wayne.keenan@gmail.com" target="_blank">wayne.keenan@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr">I've added a request to the IronPython3 git issue tracker.

I believe UWP is supposed to offer the same libraries with more CLR features but to be honest the whole Windows/.NET platform is a mess right now and I have no idea what the best option is.<span><font color="#888888"><div><div><br></div><div>- Jeff</div></div></font></span></div><div><div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Mon, Nov 2, 2015 at 7:57 AM, Slide <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:slide.o.mix@gmail.com" target="_blank">slide.o.mix@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr">In looking at this more, it looks like there is quite a bit of magic that needs to happen behind the scenes in order to support Winmd files.

I haven't looked at the code, but that is my guess. It probably something that needs to be looked into.</p>
