Hi, there's been a few pygame related proposals accepted by google. Unfortunately there's also been a number of good proposals which weren't accepted. This year python software foundation(psf) got allocated less slots than previously, and they also had way more proposals.
Here's the announcement from google: http://google-opensource.blogspot.com/2008/04/announcing-accepted-student-proposals.html I'm sorry to those people not accepted, but I hope you at least gained some proposal writing experience. Some people have also been accepted to the SDL, OLPC, and BBC organisations also doing some pygame related things.
