On a second look, I see System.Dynamic in Metro:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/apps/hh454068(v=VS.85).aspx.

I haven't watched the talk, but which pieces are missing? It looks
like someone is going to have to just build the darn thing on Win8 and
see what happens (dibs out). I'd hate for IronPython not to be able to
build Metro apps in some form, but I don't have the time to see it
though right now.
