Hi,

There was only one Pygame specific project this year. It is mentioned on 
the Pygame page http://www.pygame.org/news.html under the July 6 entry.

I'm not sure how you manage to find my project there,
since I have no
such project. I have never been involved with GSOC in any
way, nor am
I really qualified to be a mentor :) I have posted in/on
various
python formums/mailing lists though, so presumably it's a
case of
mistaken identity!

Hi,

Yeah, I was asking the community in general since there is no specific go-to
person mentioned on that website. Sorry I wasn't clearer. I was hoping that

There is a 2010 page as well, the link appears to have been fixed...
I haven't been involved in GSOC before either, but this is the pygame
mailing list so I don't think he is actually asking you personally Neilen,
but the Pygame community.
I believe you should speak with Marcus, he seems the most active in GSOC,

Hi Neilen,

In the Development section on that link, it lists the following: "PyGame has
their own ideas page" (5th down). Of course, it links to the 2009 page on
PyGame's site: http://pygame.org/wiki/gsoc2009ideas

Not sure how it got included on the 2010 wiki page though. Sorry to bother
you guys.

I'm not sure how you manage to find my project there, since I have no

[pygame] GSoC Article for PSF and my blog

2010-09-16 Thread Mike Driscoll
Hi,

I am working on an article for the Python Software Foundation's blog,
http://pyfound.blogspot.com/, about the various Python projects that were
worked on during this year's Google Summer of Code program. They want me to
write up something about what projects were worked on and what the results
were. I found your project information here:
http://wiki.python.org/moin/SummerOfCode/2010

Anyway, since the PSF blog article will be brief, I thought I would also
write up a longer article about your projects on my personal blog as well.
The information I found on the Python wiki page was pretty brief, so I would
appreciate it if you could tell me the following:

1) What was worked on during the GSoC project
2) How many students helped with a guess at how many hours were put in
3) Your experiences being a mentor

If possible, I would like the student's perspective too. Feel free to
forward my information to them. Also feel free to opt out and I won't write
anything more than the already public info I can find. Thanks a lot for your
help!
