Hi! The Debian Junior blend targets young users, from toddlers until early teens. There are programs in the metapackages that are educational, for programming, typing oriented, system/computer exploratory, for creating art and sound, and, of course, games.
The Debian Games blend is a really great effort, and has a massive list of games. Recently, I have been updating the games-* tasks in the Junior blend and am starting to feel that this is a somewhat double effort. Many games are shared between games and junior tasks. Not all games are appropriate or necessecary for Debian Junior though, and there is no full overlap. There might also be a slight difference in taxonomy, e.g. where should multiplayer network games that run on console be placed junior-net or junior-text (or both)? Any bright ideas on how we can join in an effort to cooperate between junior-games and games tasks? In some areas it is quite easy, e.g. junior-puzzle could depend on games-tetris, instead of listing a subset of the tetris games manually. In contrast, games-puzzle probably lists to many puzzle games to be relevant for junior-puzzle.
