How to use glBufferData() in PyOpenGL?

Question

How do you use glBufferData() in the PyOpenGL python bindings to OpenGL?

When I run the following code

import sys
from OpenGL.GL import *
from PySide

As a workaround, until lists are supported, pass the vertices as a numpy array:

vertices = numpy.array([0.5, 0.5, -0.5, 0.5, -0.5, -0.5, 0.5, -0.5], 
                       dtype='float32')

The glVertexPointer call should be glVertexPointer(2, GL_FLOAT, 0, None)
