I'm not sure if Python.NET is a new name for "Python for .NET", or a
completely different project. Do you have a URL for it?

Python for .NET brings the regular CPython interpreter to the .NET and Mono
environments.

IronPython is a reimplementation of Python, written in C# as managed code
for .Net, running on the CLR virtual machine. It doesn't use a GIL, and is
sometimes considered a little faster than CPython.
