It's worth a try - otherwise we can try to get some slots under the PSF umbrella as last year. > Do we have ideas for suggested projects for students to take on? The list from last year[0] is out of date, but some things are still interesting, namely OSC networking Easy simple software 3d Improved graphics format support Math support, Graphics types AI module Improved font support Decent movie support Video effect plugins Improved Sprite and scene system Especially in conjunction with pgreloaded, math support, graphics formats, simple software 3d, font support and the video stuff would be very interesting for me to mentor. Also porting and improving things such as the camera module and midi support to pgreloaded would be an option for those, who are a bit scared about starting from scratch completely. If students come up with interesting ideas, that's fine as well, though. There's no need to stick to the ideas list only :-). [0] http://pygame.org/wiki/gsoc2008ideas?parent=index Regards Marcus
