[IronPython] The Future of IronPython

[Dino Viehland]

Yes, I'm still at Microsoft and I'm still working on something Python related - I even get to write some Python code now from time to time :).  But I think that's about all I can say right now but I intend to be at PyCon this year still and hopefully will be giving a talk.

I meant "working at Microsoft". I expect he'll tell us what he's working on at some point. :)

What do you mean by here, participating in the IronPython project or working in Microsoft?

Jimmy and Jim are two different people. Jimmy Schementi left Microsoft almost three months ago and is now working for Lab49. He will continue to be closely involved in IronRuby and IronPython. Jim Hugunin has just left for Google, and is not expected to be involved in IronPython in the future.
Dino's still here.

Jim moved to Google. I don't know about Dino.

Just curious, are Dino and Jimmy still working at Microsoft in other projects or they moved to another company if we might know?
