Re: [Mesa-dev] Valve games for Mesa/DRI developers

2015-04-13 Thread Thierry Reding
Hi Daniel,

I'm not much of a gamer myself, but I imagine that these games would be
useful, real-life tests and/or entertaining benchmarks. Given that I
work mostly on ARM systems, do you know if there are any plans on making
these games available on ARM? I know some of Valve's games have been
ported to ARM for Android, but perhaps there isn't enough of an audience
to make it beneficial to get them to run on regular Linux on ARM?

 At Collabora (my lovely dayjob), we've been working with Valve on
 SteamOS. Valve are keen to give back to the community, and we've been
 discussing ways they can help do that, including providing free access
 to Valve games on Steam to Debian developers last year.
 
 We're happy to say that this has been extended to Mesa developers as
 well, to say thanks for all the great work. If you have 25 commits or
 more (an arbitrary number) to Mesa[0] in the past five years, please
 drop me an email (with 'Steam' in the subject) with your freedesktop
 username and Steam username. We can then get you access to all past
 and future Valve-produced games available on Steam[1].
 
 Thanks for all the great work, and enjoy.
 
 Cheers,
 Daniel

I don't actually know myself, but even if I did, it wouldn't really be
for me to pre-empt Valve saying so. I agree it would be nice though!

Cheers,
