Well, if you want SDL2, you can use pygame_sdl2. ;-)

At the moment, I don't see any advantage to porting the pygame codebase to
SDL2, when pygame_sdl2 already exists. It seems like development energy
would be better spent improving compatibility, adding features to
pygame_sdl2, and helping the two projects to share code. If there's some
advantage to making another SDL2 port, we could look at that, but it sounds
like a lot of work, so a compelling reason would be needed.

In terms of version numbers, I could see the SDL1.2 based pygame making
releases like 1.10, 1.11, and so on. We'd probably avoid making 2.x because
of the potential for confusion.

so does this mean we are stuck forever with 1.9.something and the old sdl
library? :(

IIRC SDL1 has the same limited support, they just bundle lib SDL_gfx with
SDL1.

SDL2 has limited support for drawing primitives. I think it would be
difficult to create a complete API compatible Pygame 2.

There's an issue about that:
https://bitbucket.org/pygame/pygame/issues/174/pygame-20-the-sdl2-edition

The current thinking is that we might bless pygame_sdl2 as the recommended
SDL2 version of pygame, and try to share code where it's practical.

We're pleased to announce the release of Pygame 1.9.2, available now from
PyPI and Bitbucket. You can (probably) install it with:

pip install pygame

The highlights of this version include Python 3 support, and pre-built
wheel packages available on PyPI for major platforms, allowing convenient
installation with pip. I'm not sure of all the other changes, but there's
lots more detail in the WHATSNEW file in the source tree, or the commit
history.

If you run into problems, please check for and report issues at:
https://bitbucket.org/pygame/pygame/issues?status=new=open

We're already aware of an issue with the mixer_music_test crashing on Linux
when installed from a wheel (issue 317).
