getting a game into the ports collection

2008-10-06 Thread Haroon Khalid
Hello,

I am working on a game which uses Ruby,Rubygame and SDL. If this game was a
good demonstration of these applications and many people like it, how would
I go about getting information on if its possible to include this game in
the ports collection? Thanks

If you make it into a port, and the port works, and then you submit it, 
I think you can pretty much guarantee that it will be accepted.

The details of the process outlined above are well documented.

If this doesn't cover something then you can likely find the answer in
/usr/ports/Mk/*.
