Three weeks ago I opened a topic to announce my project; a python binding for SFML2. At the time, it was the result of my work last winter but in the meantime I had to go abroad leaving the project in its current state without releasing it.  It was out-of-date with the then current sfml2 development version but I wanted to release it before carrying on and updating it to the release candidate. Three weeks later here we are; the project is updated to the release candidate as promised.

Although I spent the last 3 weeks on working on the update there are quite a lot of thing I didn't have time to implement. I focused on the functionality part: the most important classes have been implemented.  Tests to check whether they do run well on all platform have been performed.

I consider this version  a fast release which comes with bugs and non implemented functionality, yet comes with almost complete documentation.

This time the binding comes with installers for Windows (something I didn't have time to make last time) and, like always, a Ubuntu/Debian depot for ease of installation. This depot provides many packages: sfml2-rc, the
binding and the examples for the binding.

I'm linking to the on-line documentation where you will find explanations about installation, the documentation and various script examples as well as explanation about the project, etc.
