  • Python Success Stories

    ...Python was regarded fondly by our founders, but could not directly fulfil the requirement for .NET interoperability. Python for .NET was considered, allowing Python developers to call .NET assemblies, but in the end this lost out to IronPython, a reimplementation of Python as a .NET language, which runs directly on the Common Language Runtime (CLR). At the time, IronPython felt like a somewhat risky proposition. At v0.7 it was still relatively young, and had an extremely low profile. The acquisi...

  • Notes

    ...Python 2.4 beta 2? Release date: 03-NOV-2004 License The Python Software Foundation changed the license under which Python is released, to remove Python version numbers. There were no other changes to the license. So, for example, wherever the license for Python 2.3 said "Python 2.3", the new license says "Python". The intent is to make it possible to refer to the PSF license in a more durable way. For example, some people say they're confused by that the Open Source Ini...

    ...Python 2.3 What's new in Python 2.3 Here are the (subjective) highlights of what's new in Python 2.3. Faster According to a couple of simple benchmark, Python 2.3 is about 20-30% faster than Python 2.2.3. Some of this speed-up was obtained by removing the SET_LINENO opcodes, which means that the difference is less impressive when comparing "python -O"; the rest was various careful tune-ups. New Tools A brand new version of IDLE (from the IDLEfork project at SourceForge) is now ...
