[IronPython] Some Iron Python PR

[Greg Lindstrom]

Hello-

I have volunteered to write an article for International Developer 
Magazine giving a high-level look at Python; the history and motivation 
behind the language as well as future direction.  The article is not too 
long (1850 words), but I would like to include a little bit on Iron 
Python as well at Jython, Zope, and other applications.  Though I heard 
the Iron Python presentation at PyCon earlier this year, would one of 
you be kind enough to summarize what you are trying to accomplish and 
give an expected date for release?  Also, who is/are leading the 
development?  Is it fair to say Microsoft is supporting your efforts?  
Enthusiastically?

The deadline for submission is next Wednesday and I have committed to 
having a draft out for review by Sunday.  I  know it's short, but can 
anyone here help me out with the above information?

Thanks,
--greg
