[python-advocacy] Help with IronPython presentation

[Michael Foord]

Hello Cameron,

There is a lot of introductory material to IronPython on my website:

     http://www.voidspace.org.uk/ironpython/

A couple of presentations I've done on IronPython:

     http://www.voidspace.org.uk/ironpython/ACCU2008/
     http://www.voidspace.org.uk/ironpython/developerday.html

A very good resource for .NET programmers interested in IronPython is 
"IronPython in Action". ;-)

     http://www.ironpythoninaction.com/

A large application written entirely in IronPython is Resolver One 
(largest codebase of IronPython in the wild):

     http://www.resolversystems.com/

Reasons .NET programmers should be interested in IronPython even if they 
won't switch to it as a primary development language:

     * Scripting tasks
     * Powerful REPL for interactive exploration of .NET assemblies and 
classes with live objects
     * Easy to embed in .NET applications (easy to interact with C# / 
VB.NET) for providing user scripting

Plus all the wonderful language features of Python of course.

All the best,

Michael Foord
