Hi all,
I'm happy to announce the release of pywin32 build 220. This release has addressed a number of bugs with previous builds (most notably failure to install in Python 3.5) and has added a few new features - I've appended the change log at the end of this mail.

Downloads are available at:

  https://sourceforge.net/projects/pywin32/files/pywin32/Build%20220/

For initial support (eg, to ask questions about the release etc), please contact this mailing-list (python-win32@python.org). If you want to report a bug, please do so at https://sf.net/projects/pywin32.

As always, thanks to everyone who contributed to this release, both in terms of code and reporting bugs to the tracker. As usual, Roger Upole contributed a huge number of fixes and enhancements for this release - thanks!

(Regarding SourceForge - I'm hoping to start a discussion soon about moving away from their platform due to some high-profile issues with their site. Given Python itself is moving to github in the future, it may make sense to move pywin32 there too. But in the interests of getting a build out that works with Python 3.5, I decided to stick with SourceForge for now. If your browser or adblocker reports the site as malicious, then you probably need to add an exception)

Cheers,

Mark
