Requests we can't do yet

Anything requiring Qt, Tk, or SDL is right out at present, because Android really doesn't support them. This includes PySide, PyQt, PyGtk and PyGames. And wxPython.

Yes, there are ports in progress, but the important point is that sl4a (which py4a runs under) doesn't offer a mechanism to support these features.

This is not to say they will never be supplied, but not in the short term, and each technology is significant sub-project in its own right.

How can I contribute my own Modules?

Send link to the mailing list, and if it looks OK we'll add it.
