Hi George,

Thanks for the help! If any of you happen to know what changes are
needed for compatibility with later PyX versions, it would be great to
do some automatic adaptation in the import to allow PyFeyn to work with
multiple PyX versions.

Unfortunately neither Georg nor I are actively developing the package,
but obviously people are using it (great!) and I would personally be
very happy to accept patches, new active developers/maintainers, and
maybe to implement compatibility fixes like this -- if given some
guidance to what needs to be done.

Cheers,
Andy
