Ok. I guess considering Daniels concerns, and lack of enthusiasm for the idea from anyone else it seems it would be best not to join the two. It's probably for the best for pygame too, since focusing on that would have probably just taken away time from pygame itself. There's nothing to stop the

I'd prefer use of the MIT or Apache 2.0 licenses to the less common zlib, for what it's worth. On Thu, Mar 16, 2017 at 7:52 AM, René Dudfield wrote: > I'm not sure if we should move it right now. I think so. I guess it'd be a > bit of work updating the build tools. But already

Hi Martin, yeah, I'd like to add being able to login to the pygame website with github/gitlab/bitbucket etc. Is that what you're talking about? There's a python project called python-social-auth which could be used for this. cheers, On Thu, Mar 16, 2017 at 11:21 AM, Martin Kühne

I'm not sure if we should move it right now. I think so. I guess it'd be a bit of work updating the build tools. But already many of them work off the github mirror(s). The main work is filling in the member name translations (but I think I could do that in an hour or so). Yeah, let's all shed a

how about gitlab or cgit? it would be cool if site users could use pygame's resident gitlab with the same credentials. I'm not sure how far it's possible to set this up though. cheers! mar77i

Yeah, with the python community moved to github, it's really past time to move. I recently gathered some stats from pypi and found almost a 10 to 1 ratio of python packages on github. Dirty updates, and better blitters are definitely options. There's even code already written to do multi core

My interest in moving to Github is to help solicit contributions etc. Bitbucket was never good at this and my impression is that it has become worse. The main concern I have with formally moving it into the Pygame project is Pygame Zero may need to separate from Pygame at some point. I've known
