Re: tuxracer & chromium move to Extras

[Nando <nandox7@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Well, i found myself some days ago, thinking "...fedora is increasing 
the packages, from time to time someone, ask's for a new software to be 
included., but where this will lead too. 2 DVD's??"
And my conclusion, is that some must go out, and i thinked in the games.
There must be a "clean up" in the games list. To free some space, needed 
for the essencial packages..
So i agreed with your proposal, and some more games could be included also.
