IronPython - Release: 2.6 - this brings IronPython up to date with the Python 2 series. And allegedly, with a few changes, Django should also run directly on IronPython, although I haven't found any recent posts about this, only ones from 2008. .NET is not my favorite environment, but at work we will probably take a look at it in the long run, simply because integration with the rest of the Windows world should be easier with it than with the standard CPython.
