After doing little to no work on these packages for the last few months, I've decided to orphan the following games. I thought I would post here first since these could probably benefit from a group maintainer. chromium/chromium-data: Great game, dead upstream but clearly still has a good set of users. It has recently been discovered that some of the music is non-free and some of the sounds are non-distributable. The issues are discussed in #385115. However, a slightly stripped version should fit happily in contrib/non-free. Also, I already received one email of someone offering some replacements audio files (will forward this to the new maintainer). There are a few other small bugs (with patches) that also need to be addressed (although I'm not convinced why the patch in #411614 solves the problem). vegastrike/vegastrike-data/vegastrike-music: This is a big one. The data package is one of the largest packages in Debian weighing in at ~150MB. It has a pretty good user base, and upstream is still active. However, development is quite slow now-a-days, so don't expect frequent releases. The code base is also quite large, consisting mostly of C++, but with all of the game logic in python. A good maintainer should also watch their message boards as people occasionally post package related problems there. Several bugs in the BTS which could be addressed. Due to the package size and being somewhat buggy, I have traditionally not allowed this package into testing, however any adopter can certainly change that (#295595). - -Mike -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFGEQ297ZPKKRJLJvMRAqfpAJwP1Fwl+HnpNF8/sEsLeYthWHFg1ACfSTvN YX/+aHjhWcKNBK92SV6Da40= =TXSL -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Pkg-games-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/pkg-games-devel
