Probably, but not in the section you quote. Instead it is this:

1. Use C#/PInvoke to access Python structures at the native level
    e.g. Python scripting for .NET by Brian Lloyd
    (http://www.zope.org/Members/Brian/PythonNet/index_html)

Maybe your impression is wrong. Apparently, Brian Lloyd is not "giving 
way". It isn't clear to me, either, why Kobra would be the best solution 
when Python for .NET actually runs on Mono, whereas Kobra doesn't...

I doubt that the Python community as a whole cares very much about .NET

This is free software. There is no centrally-controlled grand plan, 
except for the PSU plans of course, but I can't talk about these.
