Hi, The April 2011 PyWeek challenge has just opened for registration. The premise is to write a game, in python from scratch in a week. More details are on the website. The actual challenge starts on 3rd April and finishes 10th April. http://www.pyweek.org/ It would be cool if a small (or large!) contingent of the UK python groups would join together for some python game-writing fun. Those that want to take part please email me. A few of us did it last year and it was great fun. There is no need to commit to a full weeks work, most of us worked from home in our spare time. We met up a few times face-to-face to get some work done which was also fun, but certainly not required. I'm London based and this was announced at the London Python Dojo, but that shouldn't be seen as a barrier to others who want to join the team. For an example of what can be made the product of our work last year was "Woger the wibbly wobbly wombat." http://pyweek.org/e/ldnpydojo/ Now we don't expect to reach the lofty standards of Woger again this year, and it's certainly a competition where most of the fun is taking part rather than winning. One of the best things about PyWeek was checking out the next day and finding a game that was 10x better than when you left it, with fun extra features added in by your team mates.
