I'm seconding it and will provide the necessary information: Basic purpose: Discussion of overall issues that are related to games (like libraries, potential new games to package, DFSG-freeness issues related to games, etc). Interested audience: A steadily growing mailing list from the Debian Games Group on Alioth, with ca. two dozen team maintained packages and growing, as more games are moved into the group maintenance and new ones are packaged. Name: debian-devel-games Rationale: While the existing mailing should continue to be used for the actual maintenance (SVN commits, bug reports and installer mails for the team maintained packages, discussions of bugs in the team maintained packages) the other list should cover the issues not special to the team maintained packages, relevant for Debian and free games as a whole. Short description: Development of Games in Debian Long description: Development and packaging discussion for games and game-related software in Debian. Identification of potential new games suitable for Debian. Discussion about infrastructure issues covering a wider range of games (e.g. multiplayer issues) Category: Developers Subscription: Open Post Policy: Open Web Archive: yes -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
