Well, see the respective feature lists for the differences; they are equivalent if _all_ you want to do is render to a single opengl context. > I am interested in reasons you stared pyglet, instead of improving > pygame+pyopengl - pyglet must have some advantages.

PyGame is fundamentally limited by SDL; a feature addition (such as adding support for multiple windows) would require a modification to SDL, to the PyGame DLL and to the PyGame Python modules. Incidentally, the PyGame DLL is not required now that ctypes is available; I rewrote PyGame to use ctypes last year but the then maintainers were not interested in making the switch. Because pyglet doesn't use SDL it can have include many features that PyGame cannot (yet).
