Hi everyone,
Two points concerning the pygame/version.py. First, I think it is time to move to Pygame version 1.9.2a0, in preparation for the final Pygame SDL 1.2 release. Second, I think pygame/version.py should be dynamically generated, so it can include Mercurial information, specifically the changset id (node id). This is especially useful for Windows and OS X prebuild binaries.
