Some of that is probably on the spin pages for the rest of the spins. I don't know that the default spins have them though. I can tell you the games spin is constructed as a marketting tool. I don't think it was viewed that way by the previous games spin maintainer. This affected which packages were kept in the spin. Specifically I wanted the spin to work as is and dropped all of the games that were usable without downloaded content. (I probably should have also dropped the 3d games, but by the time I figured that out we had working 3d support with free drivers on some cards.) While not quite agreeing with McGrath, I do feel that once someone has Fedora installed they can pull in any or all games without too much trouble, so I don't focus on the games one might install, but rather what ones I think make good showcases on a live (read only) image. And note I ended up doing this because I wanted to make custom games spins and asked some questions about problems with the orphaned game spin and got asked to maintain it. -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
