be different, in language semantics, from CPython and Jython,
and I guess that the differences will be larger than between the
C and J variants. That won't pose a problem to users of
Python.NET, since their code won't port to CPython, anyway,
because the libraries are so dramatically different. Or, if they
have portable code, why run it in, if you can run it in standard
Python as well?  Selection of specific libraries always produces
subcommunities, e.g. people that use PyQt, NumPy, SWIG, PyXML,
PythonWin, ... will have code that is tied to those libraries.
.NET won't be any different - it is just another set of
libraries.   More information about the Python-list mailing list
