Hi,

In response to my comment on ScottGu’s blog regarding VS Express Support  
for IronRuby and [Asp.Net](http://Asp.Net) MVC, I was immediately responded with  
Encouraging news from Mr. ScottGu.

I Hope many would like to read this and smile.

This is the Original Blog By Mr. ScottGu.

Here’s the response by Mr. Scott.

Hi Softmind,

I would like to know more about your plans for supporting this this 2 new languages to VS Express 2008. I personally think, the support for this two languages will be welcomed by mass developers, who are keen to enter .Net with their Python and Ruby background.

I believe we will be showing using [ASP.NET](http://ASP.NET) MVC with IronRuby and  
IronPython later this week at TechEd. I don’t think we’ve finalized  
what the tooling support will be - but you will be able to use these as  
language options with [ASP.NET](http://ASP.NET).

Hope this helps,

Scott

Hello John,

Can we expect more details of TechEd on your blog next week.

Thanks

Isn’t Tech·Ed this week?

[http://www.microsoft.com/events/teched2008/default.mspx](http://www.microsoft.com/events/teched2008/default.mspx)

If so, that doesn’t seem like alot of time to get the [ASP.NET](http://ASP.NET) MVC  
DLR-aware.  
Or is there less to do than I assume?

Yes it is. We hope there is less to do that you would assume 🙂

We have a bunch of work to do to land [ASP.NET](http://ASP.NET) MVC + IronRuby for my Tech  
Ed talk. I’ll have a blog post about that likely on the Friday just  
before my talk.

Thanks,

Hi John,

Do you have any plans to show [Asp.Net](http://Asp.Net) MVC with Active Record…?

Is it possible to use Active Record/ DataMapper with [Asp.Net](http://Asp.Net) MVC in  
Future…?

Which ORM, you’ll be using in the demo…?

Thanks
