Thanks for reporting the issue. When Visual Studio builds the Project menu, it asks each project for the text to display for the "Properties" menu item. The PythonProjectNode class wasn't handling this request, so Visual Studio was displaying a default/error value (4294967294 = 0xFFFFFFFE in hex, which is -2 as an unsigned integer). I think this can be fixed by overriding the QueryStatusOnNode method in PythonProjectNode.cs to handle the properties command.
