Those should be sufficient. Go ahead and move forward with this.

Games livecd / dvd
by Hans de Goede
Hi all,
I think it would be a great idea to use the new tools to create a Fedora 7
games livecd + dvd. However I'm currently way to busy to also start a project
like this.
Any takers?

Please put games you package in comps
by Hans de Goede
Hi All,
In order for any packages, you've packaged (including games!) to show up under
the Add/Remove software application (pirut), you must add them to comps.
checkout the "comps" module from cvs, and edit the .xml.in files for the Fedora
releases for which you've build the package. Search a suitable category and it
it there. For games always use type="optional".
I've just added the following list, including a number of games I was aware of
not maintained by me:
taxipilot
flightgear
pipepanic
penguin-command
vegastrike
widelands
freetennis
Since this demonstrates that not everyone is aware that they should use comps,
I'm sending this general reminder to the games-list. Please check that all your
packages are listed in comps (for as far as end users may want to directly
install them, so for example don't add libraries).
Notice that you can easily find out if you have any packages missing from comps
by looking here (in as far as that is up to date):

FreeSCI
by Jon Ciesla
I've got FreeSCI basically ready to submit for review, and I started to
look for redistributable content, since it was originally designed to play
proprietary games, a la scummvm/sarien. The trouble is, most of the games
I've found have no licensing info of any kind.
