Re: PyNIO 1.3.0b1 sets incorrect length when creating attributes

Hi Michael,

Sorry for the delay in answering.
Yes this bug has been fixed and you can get a new version of PyNIO.
Please email Mary Haley for instructions. Let her know which OS
version you are using.
And let us know if you still have difficulty using the 'attributes'
attribute once you get the new version installed.
