Current situation of Python bindings for Gstreamer on Windows?

[Luca Bacci]

Hi! Maybe you are confusing PyGobject with another similar project,
PyGobject is actively maintained and supports both Python2 and Python3 (up
to the latest 3.9 release). You can use msys2 <https://www.msys2.org/> to
get PyGObject and GStreamer:
https://pygobject.readthedocs.io/en/latest/getting_started.html

Hope it helps!
Luca
