Microsoft IronPython?

[Luis M. González]

I think that this posted message in Jim Hugunin's weblog clearly shows
what are Microsoft intentions regarding Python and other dynamic
languages:

We're hiring full-time and summer interns!

We're looking for a few exceptionally talented individuals with
dynamic language experience (Python, Ruby, PHP, JavaScript, etc.) to
come join our efforts to make the Common Language Runtime (CLR) the
world's best platform for dynamic languages and dynamic scenarios.
The CLR already has a lot of dynamic support with reflection, runtime
code generation, and cross-language interaction. IronPython has shown
that the CLR can be a great platform for building dynamic languages. We
want you to help us take this support to the next level.

We have one developer (not yet posted), one program manager, one tester
and at least one summer intern positions available. If you're
interested, please send me email (jimhug at microsoft.com) that clearly
explains why you'd be the best choice for one of these jobs and
attach a current resume.
