gfxdraw is from pygame2, I assume? Thanks Rene, I'll give it a try. Pygame2 looks quite awesome. Is the 1.9 branch gonna keep being maintained when pygame2 is official? it breaks backwards compatibility, I guess, are you just going to keep it with a different name so they can be installed together?
