title: Python and .NET integration
body: <p>I'm currently looking at python because I really like the text parsing capabilities and the nltk library, but traditionally I am a .Net/C# programmer.  I don't think IronPython is an integration point for me because I am using NLTK and presumably would need a port of that library to the CLR.  I've looked a little at <a href="http://pythonnet.sourceforge.net/readme.html" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Python for .NET</a> and was wondering if this was a good place to start.  Is there a way to marshal a python class into C#?  Also, is this solution still being used?  Better yet, has anyone done this?  One thing I am considering is just using a persistence medium as a go-between (parse in Python, store in MongoDB, and run site in .NET).</p>
