It's my database, Dethe was referring to the fact that it is the only 
place to easily install the pygame module and its dependencies on OS X. 
  There's a link to my database from the download page of pygame.org, 
which is unfortunately titled "Pygame OSX PackageManager Site - 
Prebuilt Pygame Packages", I'll email Pete sometime soon and ask him to 
change the text.
