Hi Christoph, sorry for not letting your email through to the stk-devel list - besides being probably a bit too boring for most people on the list (I cc all admins here) there is the fact that the outside temperature is 42+ degrees, and the desktop with the password for the stk-devel list is in a non-airconditioned room :)

While doing the Hmm - I am a bit surprised, since 0.5 included the same track with the same license ;) Guess we got lucky? > regular Copyright check I stumbled upon the License.txt in the island > track which is pretty much an stopper for any efforts in this regard. I am most certainly not a license expert, but the license for those textures appear to be quite liberal. What is the problem with them? > While I could probably replace some textures (I'll have to do this > for the CC < 3 in xr591) replacing all textures for this island > track is simply impossible for me. I can see that (I want to ask what's wrong with cc 2.5, but I guess I can find this in some FAQ). On a side note: if you replace the textures, could you perhaps send us the modified textures as well? While I can't guarantee that we will use them, we will have a look at them! > What are your plans concerning this track? Any input for what to do > next?

We will discuss this among us admins, but honestly I can't promise anything atm. If STK can not be included in Debian, at least we have by now a static linux executable, which the Debian users can download ;) Or do you see any other option? Perhaps you could post in a Debian forum to see if someone volunteers? I am sure that Debian has a bigger audience than STK :) Best regards, Joerg _______________________________________________ Games mailing list Games@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/games
