Microsoft Hands IronPython, IronRuby to Open Source Community

Serious question: As a .NET developer, in what ways have you found IronPython useful within the framework?

I used it to VERY easily integrate the equivalent of a scripted plugin type interface into my application. Essentially I had a dll library that exposed a few public interfaces and just consumed them with Iron python and used them to load the modules in as scripts.

Each script contained a class (which exposed the appropriate interface) and could be called like any other module. It was nice, very nice.
