Presented by: Michael Foord
Talk focus: Python

An introduction to developing with IronPython, a new implementation of Python that runs on the Microsoft .NET framework and cross-platform with Mono. IronPython also runs on Silverlight, the browser plugin, meaning that Rich Internet Applications can be written with Python and at last the browser can be natively scripted in Python.

In this talk we will cover topics like: the differences between developing with CPython and IronPython, libraries available to you in the .NET framework, writing desktop applications with Windows Forms, and scripting the browser with Silverlight.
