By all means, feel free to reuse the name and declare the code in pywin32
obsolete!   Its been a few years since I've had the CE tools, and hence I
suspect since wincerapi has been built or used.  I'd be just as happy to
have it in the CVS attic as have it in a perpetual limbo (kind of like a
bit-part character in a B-Grade movie :)

I'm certainly inclined to agree about ctypes being preferable to SWIG, and
as Thomas and I have vaguely and briefly discussed, I'm always open to that
being an option for pywin32 itself.

Cheers,
