Richard Jones' Log: PyWeek Game Programming Challenge dates set!

The date for the first PyWeek challenge has been set: Sunday August 28 to Sunday September 4 (00:00UTC to 00:00UTC). The PyWeek competition:

• Invites all Python programmers to write a game in one week from scratch either as an individual or in a team,
• Is intended to be challenging and fun,
• Will hopefully increase the public body of python game tools, code and expertise,
• Will let a lot of people actually finish a game, and
• May inspire new projects (with ready made teams!)

Entries must be developed during the competition, and must incorporate some theme decided at the start of the competition.
