Wow, amazing work, all around! O_O

*/I'm tired./* Been spending some months on pygame stuff. 




That article(novella) I promised several months ago about 


contemporary C tools is still unfinished(but probably useful).

Learnt lots from writing it. Especially researching how other projects do 
things.
I tried to include instructions on how to use tools, and further links to 
videos and articles.


Here's some issues of those tools applied to pygame:

A few people have been helping with these issues, 


but @charlesej in particular has been amazing in going through mountains of 
issues uncovered.
The pygame code base is significantly cleaner, more portable, and less buggy 
because of it.







I've labeled all SDL2/pygame 2 related compatibility issues reported by people 
as `*critical*`.

These `critical` issues will be my focus as we move forward to shipping pygame 
2.0.0.
If you feel like helping out with any of these critical issues, that would be 
highly appreciated.


- confirm the bug (on your platform).
- cheer people on in the issues
- write a minimal working example script so people can reproduce the issue.


- write a test case, or try and clarify the issue

Lots more has been going on, 


which I'll expand on in the release notes for the upcoming 2.0.0.dev4 release.
(We're 684 commits since the last stable release).






ps. DaFluffyPotato released a new commercial game using the pygame 2.0.0.dev3 
release. 


"Drawn Down Abyss" is getting good reviews... check it out:

pps. Feels like progress?
