[Python.NET] surveying the landscape ...

Wed Nov 9 03:13:57 EST 2016

Hi David,

Can you please give access to pythonnet on Test PyPI to me?

https://testpypi.python.org/pypi/pythonnet

For example 3 people have access to production PyPI installation:

https://pypi.python.org/pypi/pythonnet/2.2.0.dev1

Thanks,
Denis
