Apparently skype now supports it: http://www.skype.com/intl/en-us/features/allfeatures/screen-sharing

I have also had good (cross-platform) luck with the currently-free mikogo service: http://www.mikogo.com/

Skype would work, and if anyone knows of a way to do screen sharing as
well, please chime in.

Shoot me a mail off list and we'll sort it out.

That's great to hear.

On the getting involved note, one thing I would love is a code review over
ichat/skype/mikogo/cell/etc. I have a patch I intend to submit shortly, and
would love someone who knows what they are doing to review it with me
synchronously, if nothing else so I can validate some of my assumptions.

There are some big Python applications (e.g. Mercurial) that are going to
remain on 2.7 for some time. There are important modules that are still
missing (bz2), or are incomplete (_winreg), that create compatibility
barriers.  It would also be nice to have sockets moved to the
socket.py/_socket.cs model (similar to how ssl has been implemented) to
support apps that monkey patch that module.

100% agreed. I don't want to see 2.7 whither, for exactly the reasons
you mention, and there is still a lot of low hanging fruit that could
make it much better. The thing is, my own interests are drifting to
Python 3, because I think it will allow IronPython to be as close to
perfectly compatible as possible. Plus, it will give me a chance to
really get into the guts of IronPython, which I'm going to document
more fully as I go.


I know the community is limited in resources, but I would hope that 2.7
not
be abandoned too quickly. I would happily volunteer to own the
maintenance
of 2.7, but I am far too early in the learning curve to be of any
practical
use.  That said, I'm happy to help on items where I am familiar with that
part of the codebase, or where an experienced contributor can give me
some
mentoring. For example, I'm interested in helping to implement the bz2
module using ic#code's #zip lib
(http://www.icsharpcode.net/OpenSource/SharpZipLib/), but would
definitely
need some mentoring along the way.

I will do (almost) whatever I need to to get more people involved in
this project. Unimplemented or incomplete modules are a great place to
start (that's how I started). Any assistance (no matter how small) is
appreciated.
