I am glade to hear about this greate news! Especially, it implemented a large number of the standard CPython built-in modules. But I found md5 module is not implemented yet!

In addition RC1 has several new 2.5 Python features that can be > enabled with the experimental switch -X:Python25, but by default these are > disabled: > > a. PEP 308: Conditional Expressions > b. PEP 343: The 'with' statement. (as per PEP 343, you need to do 'from > __future__ import with_statement' for enabling 'with' statement ) > c. Other Language Changes > 1. The dict type has a new hook for letting subclasses provide a > default value with '__missing__' method. > 2. Both 8-bit and Unicode strings have new partition(sep) and > rpartition(sep) methods. > 3. The startswith() and endswith() methods of string types now accept > tuples of strings to check for. > 4. The min() and max() built-in functions gained a 'key' keyword > parameter. > 5. Two new built-in functions, any() and all(), evaluate whether an > iterator contains any true or false values. > 6. The list of base classes in a class definition can now be empty. > > You can download the release from: http://www.CodePlex.com/IronPython > > We'd like to thank everyone in the community for your bug reports and > suggestions that helped make this a better release: audespc, Jonathan Jacobs, > Lee Culver, Luis M.
