Saturday

• Performance testing on largest connected component. It runs at a usable speed on the XO, and about twice as fast as the other connected components function in pygame.

Sunday

• Started writing a function to get the average color of a surface or a part of a surface.

Monday

• Finished average color function, wrote an example script to show its use.

Tuesday

• Worked on improving the performance of functions that access surfaces.

Wednesday

• Finished performance improvements: average_color is 4x faster, threshold is 2x faster, and mask.from_surface is 2x faster when using per pixel alphas.
• Documented connected_component a little better
