[IronPython] Announcing IronPython 1.1.2 RC1

[Michael Foord]

Hello guys,

The only socket related issue I see in that list is:

16356 1.1.2: socket.getnameinfo(...) broken under Vista

We were hoping that 1.1.2 would finally put to rest IronPython 1 issues 
with urllib / urllib2. Has that been done?

All the best,

Michael
