[Grassroots-l] [OLPC-Games] Phun source code [was: Re: Physics with Python and Pygame (Chipmunk 2D Physics Engine)]

[Joshua Minor]

(re-adding phungame at gmail.com to this thread)

Indeed, perhaps we can convince the Phun folks to release their source  
in an OLPC recommended license.

Phun has several features that Chipmunk does not, namely motors,  
springs, water + buoyancy and a more sophisticated solver.  Another  
open-source alternative, Box2D, also has motors which Chipmunk does not.
