It is a waste of time to try to get response from Isaih. He has moved on to another team as far as I know. Microsoft official statement is that this was open-source project and never supported by Microsoft. I have reached Microsoft several times trough different channels and response was always that. I am trying to get them at least may be someone to update the repo saying that currently there is no development done and if someone wants to chime in on that work they can help me. I doubt that someone will really commit to this if it is outside of Microsoft.

At this point I am seriously considering of abandoning PartnerCenter and trying to find other ways to do things. I do not see anyone picking the development on this module.
