Ok - thanks.

In turn, the 2.1 branch was the reason there's been no source pushes for the past two weeks - some scripts and TFS enlistments needed updating to re-enable IP 2.0 source updates.

If you want these now (and possibly some changes that won't be making it into IP 2.0), use http://www.codeplex.com/IronPython/SourceControl/DownloadSourceCode.aspx?changeSetId=40877.  Otherwise, we hope to have the fixes included in TFS within a week.  Sorry for any confusion about this.

There are some perf problems that I have fixes for though that aren't checked in (e.g. import decimal in pre-compiled currently allocates ~550MB of memory) - but you should be able to do functional testing :).  I'll should have the pre-comp perf fixes in this week.
