Greetings

I am pleased to announce the first public beta of pyglet, a 
cross-platform windowing and multimedia package useful for developing 
games and other visually-rich applications.

http://www.pyglet.org

pyglet is written entirely in Python, with no external requirements 
needed to develop applications for Windows XP, Mac OS X or Linux.

pyglet allows applications to open any number of top-level windows and 
draw into them using the OpenGL API.  Multiple-monitor setups are 
well-supported.

Applications using pyglet can also play sound and music samples in 
surround-sound, taking advantage of hardware acceleration where 
available.  With the addition of a single DLL based on FFmpeg, 
applications can read compressed sound and video in many formats.

pyglet is provided under the BSD open-source license, allowing you to 
use it for both commercial and other open-source projects with very 
little restriction.

Cheers,
Alex.
