[pygame] pygame 1.7.1rc2 released.



Hey,

this is the first release candidate for pygame 1.7.1.

CVS has been tagged with release_1_7_1rc2 to mark this release candidate.

If there are no changes, or bug fixes over the next day then this
will become the 1.7.1 release.



Please report your testing here.  Thanks!

We need someone who can do win98 testing.



Source release:
 http://rene.f0o.com/~rene/pygame-1.7.1rc2.tar.gz
Windows binary release:
 http://rene.f0o.com/~rene/pygame-1.7.1rc2.win32-py2.4.exe


Made the test/ directory get included in the tar ball.

Fixed up the example/fastevent.py to work on linux.  Where it is
actually fast compared to the normal event functions.  Unlike in
windows/freebsd where it is not.

Fixed a volume setting channel bug in mixer.c.  So now
achannel.set_volume(0.5) will change the volume, and not the panning. 
So get_volume() does not always return 1.0 anymore.  Using
set_volume(1., 1.) will use the panning.  Such that get_volume will
not work.  Unfortunately at the moment there is no sdl_mixer api to
query what the panning is.

In other news, piman has taken over debian maintainership of pygame,
and the latest pygame will appear in debian once 1.7.1 is released. 
Yah!


Cheers.
