Silverlight and IronPython

I've been doing some experimenting with Silverlight and IronPython. You will need Silverlight 1.1 Alpha Refresh to use these:

• WebIDE 0.2.0 - This is the addition of a 'load' and 'save' (from the local filesystem) to my IronPython Web IDE. This allows you to edit and execute blocks of IronPython code in the browser. It is a great way to explore the Silverlight CoreCLR API. You can also download the source code, which makes a useful example of a minimal IronPython / Silverlight project.
• System.Windows.Downloader - accessing server resources from Silverlight using System.Windows.Downloader.
• System.Windows.Browser.Net.BrowserHttpWebRequest - But this is better.
• IsolatedStorageFile - 1MB of 'in the browser' storage per application...
• OpenFileDialog - How to present an open file dialog to the user, and load the file they select (or not).
• Saving Files from the Browser - A hack (using Javascript and a Python CGI) to present a save file dialog to the user.

I have one more chapter to complete before IronPython in Action can go out to 'early access'. After that it is full steam ahead preparing for my two Silverlight talks...
