I wouldn't mind filling the database (a bit) but I'm not an
infrastructure type of person.

It looks like these guys had the same idea:

http://freegamearts.myexp.de/

And another collection of sites, some unreachable:

http://debianlinux.net/multimedia.html#game_data

It would be better to start by trying to contribute to these groups before starting something new.

I realized after posting this that I may have sounded a bit dismissive. I didn't mean to be. I agree that a free game content database is a good idea, and apparently so have others. On #fedora-games Rahul posted a link to Debian's game resources page:

http://debianlinux.net/games.html

This contains not only a list of games available from Debian, but other game-related resources, such as the free content archives above.

I'll add this link to our SIG wiki page, as I think it contains a lot of good pointers to games and related tools that people can consider packaging.
