Hi,

I've been prodded by a bunch of people on finally getting this done. But requests from people in the UK using it for teaching are the main motivation. Yes, it's highly unbelievable it will actually happen this time... but who knows?

1.9.2 release:

Debian python 3: https://bitbucket.org/pygame/pygame/issue/221/debian-python-3-package-for-192
OS X: https://bitbucket.org/pygame/pygame/issues?component=OS%20X

Windows: https://bitbucket.org/pygame/pygame/issues?q=windows

I'm working on it this weekend. I'll concentrate on making installation of what we have easier, but also getting the 1.9.2 release out which is blocking a new package in Debian.

I'll be moving stuff I deem not critical for the release into having a 1.9.3 tag, rather than 1.9.2. I'll eventually be removing modules that are not stable and were not in previous releases. If they are blocking the release, and no one can fix them they will be removed.

If anyone is around to help, there are a mountain of tasks to do. I'll be in #pygame on irc, the mailing list, and in the issue tracker. Also, if anyone is in Berlin and wants to meet up to hack on pygame, that would be great.

best,
