I fully support this effort. While we're at it, I may add my pyglet
tutorial (http://www.steveasleep.com/pyglettutorial) to the proper
docs to send PageRank to the right place. I don't get much opportunity
to use pyglet anymore and I don't want it to rot on my site for too
long. I wrote the tutorial in Markdown, but I can convert it to
reStructuredText with pandoc and clean up by hand.

Also, forking things on Google Code is a pain in the butt, which makes
contributing more difficult. What are people's feelings toward moving
to e.g. BitBucket, where the UI is a bit friendlier? Google Code seems
to be a "big project, monolithic contributor" kind of site, but pyglet
seems more and more like a "small project, many contributors" kind of
project. (I suspect this idea will no go over well but there it is.)
I'm comfortable with hg but I literally feel like it would be easier
to email Richard a zip file with my contributions rather than fork and
have him pull.
