Mili,

I suggest that it's because Pynguin is not yet fully operational.

I don't know where to report problems.

The problems I had were installing for Python 3.3 and 2.7, using win32

In the latter case, it seem as though the code is tied with 3.3.

On the face of it, the package appear to have potential.
