Actually just getting it into Fedora would be nice. Once it's there anyone 
can see it when searching for games in Fedora. If you are interested in 
packaging it yourself, you can look at:

The games spin is really more of a demo. Running a live image off a DVD is 
pretty slow. It can be used as a portable OS using a USB, but that has 
limited applicability. Normally if one wants the (mostly) complete set of 
games installed, one does a yum groupinstall -y games . (You might need 
to request optional packages if you don't have that set by default.)

The games spin is limited by size and a number of good games can't be 
included on it. However which games are included does change over time. 
If TrippleA gets into Fedora, I'll at least consider getting it into the 
games spin.
