Thank you, Jeff!! This is wonderful! I have already cloned the new repo on my Windows development machine (such as it is, and old Windows 7 laptop) and will put it on my Ubuntu development machine (the one I work on daily) in a few minutes.
Two questions remain that were not answered in the Readme: 1) What github workflow are we planning to use? Everyone shares the same fork/repo and submits pull requests from his/her branch there? Or each developer forks the project and submits pull reports from it? I am more familiar with the second (having used it more) but many projects prefer the first. [It would probably a good idea to turn on the github wiki and answer this in the repo. I am willing to copy a suitable draft from another project and edit to fit, if that would be helpful. I really want to write a page for Ubuntu installation, as soon as I can figure out how to do it myself.] 2) What compilers and tool chains will be supported. I presume the current MonoDevelop on Linux, but what on Windows? My ability to work on a CPython project (pywin32) is severely hampered by not being able to obtain a suitably ancient C++ compiler. I would hate to get in to a similar bind here. I have managed to get through life so far without ever having to buy Visual Studio and believe that we should maintain the ability to build using free tools. Looking at visualstudio.com<http://www.visualstudio.com/en-US/products/visual-studio-express-vs>it seems that the best viable candidate would be *Express 2013 for Windows Desktop*. Would that be the appropriate choice? -- Vernon Cole On Thu, Mar 20, 2014 at 5:59 PM, Jeff Hardy <jdha...@gmail.com> wrote: > I know a lot of people are interested in IronPython 3, so I'm going to > provide an idea of where things are right now and where they are > headed. > > First off, IronPython 3 development will take place in a new > repository (https://github.com/IronLanguages/ironpython3) to break > from the old repo that was converted from Microsoft's internal TFS.
