Hi,
I love the idea, we must however note that, if the game engines are free software, free games can be made from then. See Freedoom for example, if the PrBoom game engine wasn't free software (http://directory.fsf.org/wiki/PrBoom), Freedoom wouldn't be considered a free software Doom IWAD (IWADs are what Doom players call "games") (http://directory.fsf.org/wiki/Freedoom). As such, I would suggest you to emphasize that free games can be made from these engines. As for Alien Arena... I'm speechless, as I recall seeing Alien Arena being approved as free software (http://directory.fsf.org/wiki/Alien_Arena). Perhaps we'll have to subdue Alien Arena to some scrutiny once again, either in the Free Software Directory, or in this list. Arx Libertatis: Another game engine, that shouldn't be missed. Not yet approved at the Free Software Directory, but this is still a highlight. If we take on the same premisse, OpenMW (http://directory.fsf.org/wiki/OpenMW) would have to be removed from the Free Software Directory, as it's just a game engine for games like The Elder Scrolls: Morrowind. Really Rather Good Battles in Space: Needs scrutiny once more, either here or at the Free Software Directory (http://directory.fsf.org/wiki/Really_Rather_Good_Battles_In_Space). Red Eclipse: Needs scrutiny once more, either here or at the Free Software Directory (http://directory.fsf.org/wiki/Red_Eclipse). Stunt Rally: Needs scrutiny once more, either here or at the Free Software Directory (http://directory.fsf.org/wiki/Stunt_Rally). Trigguer Rally: Needs scrutiny once more, either here or at Trisquel's repositories (http://packages.trisquel.info/belenos/trigger-rally). VDrift: Needs scrutiny once more, either here or at the Free Software Directory (http://directory.fsf.org/wiki/VDrift). Besides, one must take note of what Richard Stallman discussed at the engineering tech at Google (https://www.gnu.org/philosophy/google-engineering-talk.html), mainly about freedom 2, and copyright art vs. software. As a follower of the free software philosophy, I also agree that non-software data should at least give to the user the freedom to share such data, even if restricting to non-commercial purposes and even if restricting derivative works, and for the followers of the philosophy, going beyond that is just an extra since we assume that artistic works which other than software aren't an issue because the user doesn't do functional things with it. Respectfully, Adonay. Have a nice day. -- Assinatura automática – português brasileiro: – Página de usuário na wiki do LibrePlanet.org: https://libreplanet.org/wiki/User:Adfeno – Em favor da aprovação da Lei ODF em Santa Catarina (https://secure.avaaz.org/po/petition/Aprovacao_da_Lei_ODF_em_Santa_Catarina), e para garantir os direitos humanos de igual tratamento pelo governo ou lei, de circulação dentro das fronteiras de cada nação, de participação no governo, e de igualdade no acesso aos serviços públicos, não estou aceitando arquivos do Microsoft Office ou do Apple iWork.
