Final Release date and CTP/BETA for IronRuby

Ruby IronRuby

Hi,

I Just read the comments by John L. on his blog explaining the
approximate
date for IronRuby 1.0 release. He says IronRuby 1.0 ( RTM) ) will not be
available before the first half of next year. ( That clearly means, not
before june 2008 ).

Can some one clarify what would be the approximate date for CTP/BETA or
IronRuby 1.0

Will IronPython come before IronRuby or everything depends on the Final
DLR.

Whats the exact reason for delay. Is it slow progress at DLR or any
other
particular reason.

I hope some one explains about CTP or BETA.

Thanks

IronPython is already there! It runs wonderfully. So yes, IronPython
came before IronRuby.

Thanks Seo,

I think you are talking about Python 1.0 which works currently only on
CLR.

I am willing to work with IronRuby, which works on DLR.

Can you be more specific about the CTP/BETA dates for IronRuby.

Thanks

You can certainly just download the sources anytime and use IronRuby. We
will not have anything that resembles a CTP for IronRuby.

We will have betas once we have stabilized the language more. But it’s
way too early to speculate on dates for a beta release.

Please do download the sources and provide us with specific feedback
(bugs, features to prioritize etc).

Thanks,
