**Update: trimmed for space; fetch from www.jython.org** ---- This is a _very_ old release of Jython, the Java-based Python implementation (so old, in fact, that it was still called JPython). Get the latest release on the web. Jython is a Java program that compiles Python scripts to Java byte-code, provides seamless integration between Python and Java classes, and can package Python code in Java archive formats (e.g., .jar, .class).
