Hello all,

We are using Python.NET at BlueMountain to interface between our large .NET 
code base and the cpython ecosystem for interactive, exploratory computing. By 
way of background, I was a major contributor to the pandas library for a time; 
my firm is behind the Deedle library 
(https://github.com/BlueMountainCapital/Deedle).
To state the obvious, the project has proven hugely valuable. BlueMountain has 
an interest in making sure the library doesn’t languish. To that end, we’re 
interested in contributing to the project in terms of manpower and possibly 
funding development. I’d like to get a better sense of a few things:

- is there a BDFL … is Brian Lloyd still active; or is Tony Roberts steering 
the ship (being the top code contributor recently on github?) It looks like 
python 3.x integration and more recent work is happening on on 
renshawbay/pythonnet? Is pythonnet/pythonnet still the official repo?
- who manages releases to PyPI?
- is this PythonDotNet mailing list the appropriate clearinghouse for all 
discussions related to the project?
- are there other institutions that are public users of this project?
- is there an official vision or roadmap for future releases?

I see that python 3.x support looks like it’s happening on renshawbay/pythonnet 
(awesome). For other wish-list items or proposed contributions, is it best to 
start opening issues on the pythonnet/pythonnet github site? How are pull 
requests managed?

I’m also wondering if there’s any collective / documented knowledge about the 
inherent limitations and pitfalls of the library and/or where development 
resources are needed?

Best,
  Adam
