Hey Martin, I think this question would be better posted to stackoverflow, since it doesn't really fit the forum topic of general discussion on the platform, rather this is a specific technical question about deserializing some protocol buffers in python.
Feel free to post the link to your stack question here when you create it, and I'll be happy to look into the question. We monitor here and stackoverflow/serverfault (and the public issue trackers), so there's no worry of the message being lost. If anything, there are more users on stackexchange than this forum, and you'll increase your chances of a good reply. The info I'd think would help turn this into a better question on stack would include some of the code / libraries you're using to define your service / client.
