Not sure this has been spread much yet: the Dynamic Silverlight website let you download the Dynamic Silverlight SDK and shows a few online IronRuby and IronPython (or Managed Javascript) Silverlight samples as well.

I've been playing around a bit with the SDK and start to like it. Although pretty basic for the moment, it's functional and let you write and run IronRuby or IronPython Silverlight applications locally.

Typical development steps include the creation of three files:
* the xaml manifest
* the html file
* the code file (app.rb, app.py ... )

Once these files are ready, use the following command line to run the Chiron dev server (coming with the SDK) which packages things as a XAP module seamlessly:

chiron /webserver

Detailed information can be found on the Silverlight Quickstart page.
