python compiled to native in less than a year?

[scotth]

Hello,

Since the new .NET platform from MS will take all the compatible .NET
languages and transform them to an IL (intermediate language ???), then take
the IL to native compiled code, this means that python will be compiled, but
only for the Windows platform.

Is what I have said correct, or have I missed something?  This would give
python a huge boost!
