[T]he PyCon 2005 keynote session Python on the .NET Platform on Wednesday March 23rd will hopefully coincide with the release a much more complete implementation.  Via [Cook Computing]

Jim Hugunin has been MIA for months. I talked to John Montgomery a few weeks back, who swore that Hugunin was still alive and active. (I got so worked up in the discussion with Montgomery that I said “If you don’t put a Python syntax shell together for Monad, I will!” and he responded “Promise?” Yeah, that’ll teach me. On the other hand, I have to say that writing a shell is terribly appealing to me – it’s about the most pragmatic thing a language geek can do.)
