number of relatively small changes in this release.

and via pypi.
For initial support (eg, to ask questions about the release etc), please
contact this mailing-list (python-win32 at python.org). If you want to
report a bug, please do so at https://github.com/mhammond/pywin32/issues
As always, thanks to everyone who contributed to this release, both in
terms of code and reporting bugs - there were a number of new
contributors which is great to see,
Cheers,
Mark.
Changes:
Since build 300:
----------------
* Fix some confusion on how dynamic COM object properties work. The old
code was confused, so there's a chance there will be some subtle
regression here - please open a bug if you find anything, but this
should fix #1427.
* COM objects are now registered with the full path to pythoncomXX.dll,
fixes #1704.
* Creating a `win32crypt.CRYPT_ATTRIBUTE` object now correctly sets
`cbData`.
* Add wrap and unwrap operations defined in the GSSAPI to the sspi
module and enhance the examples given in this module.
(#1692, Emmanuel Coirier)
* Fix a bug in `win32profile.GetEnvironmentStrings()` relating to
environment variables with an equals sign (@maxim-krikun in #1661)
* Fixed a bug where certain COM dates would fail to be converted to a
Python datetime object with `ValueError: microsecond must be in
0..999999`. Shoutout to @hujiaxing for reporting and helping
reproduce the issue (#1655)
* Added win32com.shell.SHGetKnownFolderPath() and related constants.
* CoClass objects should work better with special methods like __len__
etc. (#1699)
* Shifted work in win32.lib.pywin32_bootstrap to Python's import system
from manual path manipulations (@wkschwartz in #1651)
* Fixed a bug where win32print.DeviceCapabilities would return strings
containing the null character followed by junk characters.
(#1654, #1660, Lincoln Puzey)
