 *stunned*.  holy crap.  correct me if i'm wrong, but it looks like
... you ... you... reimplemented the entire CPython library API, um...
um...  i think the word i'm looking for is...  "RESPECT".

 you _crazy_ fools :)


Heh heh, that's an appropriate reaction - almost all the work was done by a developer called William Reade. Huge chunks of SciPy and Numpy can be used with IronPython through Ironclad.

It's not (yet...) the entire API, but it is a big chunk of the Python C API.
