It's definitely possible to support other NETMF languages which use the CLR. DLR usage would be quite a bit more tricky.With the support for VB.NET now, is there any possibility of supporting IronPython also?
We're doing more and more Python development, and for consistency sake it would be great to write in Python on the Netduino platform also. Is this now a part of the potential Mono support? Or is it just too dead?
Support for VB required some compiler tweaks. If you'd like to see IronPython support (which would be awesome), can you please post a "work item" feature request on netmf.codeplex.com? And then ask interested IronPython enthusiasts to vote for it?
That's usually the best way to show the desire for a particular new feature.

They came back and asked: "There would probably be work on the IronPython side as well. Is there any docs on how much of the BCL is supported in .NETMF?"
Uh ... what is the answer? :-)

There is the official documentation available on MSDN, but I am not aware of any summary; and .NET Micro Framework is not included in "Version Information" list in the 'full' .NET Framework documentation. I guess they would need to examine the .NET MF assemblies, perhaps using a tool such as NDepend or similar to get the list of differences, but still there will be a lot of things that are only partially implemented, I am not sure even the Microsoft team has all the information...They came back and asked: "There would probably be work on the IronPython side as well.
