Only René Dudfield can register a new user. To request a new account, send a
message directly to René's address, which you can get by evaluating this Python
expression:
__import__('codecs').decode('erarfq\x40tznvy\x2Epbz','rot_13')
René may or may not notice your request because he's drowning in
mail.https://twitter.com/renedudfield/status/543637671755915264
(I have full access to the News feed and any project's data, but I cannot
register or delete users.)

Howdy, folks,
The pygame.org site maintainers read this list. They will hook you up with web
site accounts when they see your request here. Have patience, it may take more
than a day.
It is this way because auto-registration enabled an amount of commercial spam
on the web site that was impossible to prevent, and damaged the editable
content. Can't blame 'em. It was difficult to police, and nobody wants that
chore. :)
In the meantime please visit IRC #pygame. It's "vibrant" in spurts. But again,
have patience, because people have lives. They will eventually see your
messages, so if you stick around you will get to meet some members of the
community.
This mailing list, the web site, and IRC each fill a niche. Between them we
have a pretty cozy community.

Hey,
I agree ... it's a shame that the community isn't as vibrant as it could be.
I noticed in both your emails that pygame-users@seul.org is listed as
"additional recipients". That's interesting ... SEUL stands for "Simple End
User Linux" ... I just messaged a friend of mine who is involved with that ...
maybe he's even "the guy", but I doubt, else I would have know that by now ...
unfortunately he just got into a motorcycle accident in Bangkok, but it's
daytime there and he's probably going to respond shortly ... so I'll try to
help from that angle ... I've never had anything to do with pygame admin, but I
also have a pending question on this list asking if "it's okay to put a certain
project on pygame" as it's not using pygame at all, apps are in javascript ...
but apps have evolved from pygame original impls ...
I googled "pygame seul" and there are IRC channels ... maybe try those ... I
can't right now ... but here's the channel: #seul at irc.seul.org
I'm interested in seeing a more active/engaged/vibrant community for sure.
Cheers,
Charles

Hello! I wish I could help you! In fact, I wish our community could grow
instead of turn away people who want to participate. So who is in charge of
the pygame.org site? Are they here on this list? I know there was a new beta
version of the site, but was its horizontal scrolling on the home page an issue
for its not being adopted? Who is in charge of the site?? And what would it
take to have a vibrant community that pygame deserves? ~ Michael On Fri :
