Hi all,
   I'm happy to announce the release of pywin32 build 304. There are a 
number of changes in this release with the significant ones listed below.

Note:
* There are no .exe installers for 32-bit 3.10+ due to Python dropping 
support for bdist_wininst.

* arm64 wheels for 3.10 and 3.11 64bit versions are available on pypi.

Downloads are available at:

   https://github.com/mhammond/pywin32/releases/tag/b304

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 303:
----------------
* Fixed Unicode issues in the `dde` module (#1861, @markuskimius )

* Add `PRINTER_INFO_6` support for Set/GetPrinter (#1853, @CristiFati)

* Fixed codepage/mojibake issues when non-ascii characters were included
   in COM exceptions raised by Python apps. This should be invisible, but
   might break any workarounds which were used, such as using specific
   encodings in these strings. (#1823, #1833)

* Fixed a bug triggering `win32print.SetJob` to fail due to data type
   (`char*` / `wchar_t*`) mismatch (#1849, @CristiFati)

* Fix eventlog initialization (#1845, #1846, @kxrob)
