The first release candidate of IronPython 2.7.1<http://ironpython.codeplex.com/releases/view/71089>is now available. Like IronPython 2.7 <http://ironpython.codeplex.com/releases/view/54498>, this release *requires .NET 4 or Silverlight 4.* This release will replace any existing IronPython installation.
If there are no showstopping issues, this will be the only release candidate for 2.7.1, so please speak up if you run into any roadblocks. The highlights of 2.7.1 are: - Updated the standard library to match CPython 2.7.2. - Add the ast, csv, and unicodedata modules. - Fixed several bugs. - IronPython Tools for Visual Studio are disabled by default. See http://pytools.codeplex.com for the next generation of Python Visual Studio support. This release fixes a few minor bugs from 2.7.1 Beta 3, namely making ElementTree work and avoiding an exception on startup on Unix and MacOS.
