Kinda hard to start by fixing the game team, with gentoo being a community-volunteer based project, and apparently no devs interested in volunteering for games lead. The council can ask for volunteers and they have, but as the saying goes, you can lead a horse to water but you can't make him drink, and if nobody's volunteering to drink the games-lead drink... Which of course has been pointed out numerous times... Without that games team, the slack has to be picked up somewhere, and ultimately it falls to the QA and tree-cleaners teams, which /are/ still active, do do it. And if they're going to do it, in the absence of a working games team despite asking for volunteers multiple times, it's reasonable to expect they'll remake it in their own image, to some degree, which is pretty much exactly what this thread is about. -- Duncan - List replies preferred.
