Hello to you!
First of all i want you to know the following facts:
1. there are people dedicated to games packaging but those people
maintain a really huge number of packages.
2. there are lots of very interesting games, even 3d games that are
not part of extras yet
So this is why I write this email. We need more people dedicated to
package games. Especially initial packaging of games takes alot work
usually for various reasons.
If anyone is interested to maintain some of the next generation games
in extras you can either:
a) look at the games sig on the fedora wiki
b) contact me as i have various things initially packaged but not
ready for extras inclusion also a lack of time to really maintain the
packages in extras because i am too often on the road... but still
sometimes spare time to invest into building initial packages
b) look around for a yet unknown/unpackaged open source game
What i have ready e.g. would be warzone2100, vdrift (vdrift.net) and a
few others, so if youd like to take those i can send you a halfway
finished spec file.
+1
As one of the primary Game SIG pullers I would like to give this a +1 if
not a +10, we could really use a hand, there still is a wealth of good
Free games out there which I would like to see packaged, so that I never
have to hear the "I don't use Linux as there are no good games" argument
ever again.
I'm more then willing to help out (coach, fix nasty bugs requireing more
C-knowledge then you own, sponsor, in general help) anyone who wishes to
join the Games SIG, also if you need a list of games to package I can
help there too. BTW artists / level designers are welcome too, it would
for example be great if we as Fedora Games SIG could give openquartz the
small last boost it needs to offer a fully playable Free quake1. Etc.
So to make a long story short, come on and join the FUN!
Regards,
Hans
