Clay Dynamic C# Type

Clay is an open-source dynamic C# type that will enable you to sculpt objects of any shape, just as easily as in JavaScript or other dynamic languages.

The C# ExpandoObject is very efficient, but it’s not extensible and it’s difficult to build deep dynamic object graphs.  Clay, on the other hand, is highly extensible and focuses on creation and consumption of deep graphs.

IronPython and IronRuby Released as Open Source

Microsoft has internally incubated the dynamic languages IronPython and IronRuby for the past few years.  Now Microsoft has released both languages under the open source Apache License v2.0.  The community at-large can now make source contributions to any component of IronPython and IronRuby without Microsoft involvement or sponsorship.

In addition, Microsoft has announced new leadership for the Iron projects and laid the groundwork for the next version of IronPython v2.7 and IronRuby v1.9.
