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.
