It works fine for me. The testing even helped me introducing some backwards 
compatibility into trunk so that new ggz-python based games will also work 
fine with the 0.0.14 package installed.

I'm just a bit worried about the future of PyGame. The current release is from 
2005. The SVN version makes available many of the improvements from SDL, 
including a safe way to go fullscreen. With current widescreen notebooks, 
going fullscreen with Pygame often means the X server will come back at 
640x480 or something such. There are also Unicode issues with Pygame 1.7.1. 
I'm going to ask them to consider a release, finally. Nevertheless, 
ggz-python should be made available already.
