Notes on games spin

[Rahul Sundaram]

Hi


Are we still planning on doing a CD spin or just a DVD spin? IMO, a CD 
spin doesn't make much sense considering the size of the games but if 
anyone feels strongly that it would be useful, I could create a 
kickstart file for that.

In a previous discussion in #fedora-games, someone suggested that a 
games spin might disappoint folks since we don't provide proprietary 
drivers. One of the ideas that I came up to tackle this is a driver 
buddy. It won't install any drivers nor will it contain pointers but act 
more like a nudge for users to get cards that has open 3D drivers. So if 
you have a Nvidia card for example, you will get a message explaining 
the non-availability of open drives and link to cards that has one.

Fedora bookmarks has been separated from the browser in the last 
release. Do we want to have games specific bookmarks by default? Someone 
would have to create a package if this is desirable.

Do we want a special theme for the games spin? We could request the art 
team to be creative and come up with a distinctive background, look and 
feel.

Finally, is there any major good games that are possible to package or 
waiting on review that we need to have before we release this spin?
