same here. it's just a very small C module.. i'm almost certain it can
be done with pyopengl alone, and i'd very much prefer that.

i'm not really working on pygame stuff right now, but i know i've got some code
lying around that i can refactor to be a generic basis for other projects.. 

i think writing the most basic generic functionality (abstraction) in a
clean way, putting layer on top of layer, frees us from the need of
really having to get a strong dynamic going at first.
