Python for .NET and IronPython

[Steve M]

I was under the impression that IronPython is like CPython and Jython,
namely an implementation of the Python language. So in that sense it is
exactly like normal Python, although I don't know how convenient it is
to deploy.

I was also under the impression that Python for .NET is like an API
wrapper thingy, analagous to the win32com package that wraps that
interface and allows you to call functions and stuff provided by the
.NET API. It is not at all an implementation of Python.

I am confident that we will learn shortly whether I'm wrong.
