Debian Games Team
Hi, We've been recently talking about creating a group to maintain games in Debian in a collaborative way. As a starting point, I've created a mailing list in alioth for coordination, and also for create discussion threads about the main problems related to game development and games packages in Debian. You can join that list at: http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/pkg-games-devel Here are some points that might be addressed by this group if there is interested in it: - Maintaining games collaboratively, as they tend to share many points in common. - "Scale economy" benefits: maintaining more packages, quicker an with less effort. - Open a way towards a larger involvement in Debian project to people maintaining just one or few games. - Quick-fixing of security issues common to games. - Discussion of problems and facts relative to game packaging. - Discussion of how to DFGS might be interpreted regarding multimedia contents and artwork in games. - Identify important games that are not packaged yet and package them. - Identify games that we were only maintainig out of inertia, and consider dropping them - Make it easier for users to know the games available in Debian, maybe with some game selector interface, a web page, screenshots or whatever. You're welcome to join the group, or say whatever you think about this project. Greetings, Miry __ LLama Gratis a cualquier PC del Mundo.

(I am thinking about > a wrapper over the pristine installers/data/ to make the games > installable through apt-get). To be honest, I'm not particulary interested in non-free software at all, including games, but I have nothing against it if we decide as a group to do so. In my oppinion there's so much work to do about free games that I don't think it's a good idea giving away our time to non-free projects. Of course, there's the usual balance to consider between freeness and users-friendliness, but, as it has happened to other kinds of programs in more critical areas, I think it might better to concentrate in improving free games than in packaging non-free stuff, and in the long term it might give better results.

Re: Size matters. 7zip. Again.
--- Jari Aalto <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> escribió: > There are more alternatives: http://rzip.samba.org/ >From the same web page: "rzip is not for everyone! The two biggest disadvantages are that you can't pipeline rzip (so it can't read from standard input or write to standard output), and that it uses lots of memory. A typical compression run on a large file might use a couple of hundred MB of ram. If you have ram to burn and want the best possible compression rate then rzip is probably for you, otherwise stick with bzip2 or gzip." I'm not sure whether not being able to pipeline it might be a problem, but needing that huge amount of RAM might, at least in my oppinion. I'm not sure if they're refering just to compression or both to compression and decompression anyway. Greetings, Miry __ LLama Gratis a cualquier PC del Mundo.

Re: Bug mass filling
Why don't we all try to calm down and get less paranoid? I don't think anyone's trying to piss off anyone, so I think we should all try to take it less personal. We probably all have different priorities, different goals and different ideas on how to achieve them, and I don't think anyone's making proposals, asking questions or giving anwers with the purpose of making anyone feel bad, that would be too presumptuous to think. I'm lately seeing too many people getting so upset as to orphan their packages, leave the project, too many insults everywhere or getting paranoid about every single suggestion it is made. I think most of that is just caused by the nerves, and after the release everythink will calm down. Most of us are nice people with just strong feelings about their ideas, but I guess it might be nice for all of us to learn how to empathyse and respect other's ideas, and think for a moment that other people might also good reasons for them, as not everything is black or white.

Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist Owner: Miriam Ruiz <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> * Package name: vulcan Version : 0.2 Upstream Author : Mauro Persano <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> * URL : http://www.fzort.org/mpr/projects/vulcan/ * License : GPL Description : chess variant inspired by a certain well-known science fiction TV series vulcan lets you play against the computer a chess variant inspired by a certain well-known science fiction TV series. The rules implemented by this program were created by Jens Meder, and are described here: http://private.addcom.de/meder/3dschach/chess3d.htm In a nutshell, here's the idea: * viewing the board from above, you'll notice that some squares overlap. * from that view, piece moves are the same as in regular chess, except that you may choose which of the overlapping squares the piece will land at. * the movement of a sliding piece (bishop, rook or queen) is blocked by a piece in any of the overlapping squares; the sliding piece may land above or below the blocking piece. * the small 2x2 boards (the "attack boards") can be moved to an adjacent corner at the same level if they're holding just one piece, or to a corner of a different level if they're empty. The 3D models used in the program were originally created by Renzo del Fabbro, and downloaded from the site www.3dcafe.com. As far as the game author knows, they're in the public domain, but that must be clarified. The game is going to be packaged inside the Debian Games Team. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.14 Locale: [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] (charmap=ISO-8859-15) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

(More precisely, I'm giving my 2c on what level of patching is > acceptable in a Debian package. Since the disaster allegedly originates in > "abusive" patching, this is relevant). I disagree. The cause of the disaster was not that Debian does its own patching, but the fact that that patch was buggy. On the whole I think that Debian benefits a lot from custom patches, and in fact many packages would be severely buggy and/or wouldn't integrate properly with the rest of the system without them. It's not a secret that many projects benefit from Debian patches, so there might be something good with them. Also, I don't think we should always wait for upstream's new releases for adding them if we have them available. It might depend on every case. Maybe there's a problem with the fact that some of those patches are just reviewed by just one person, but then again, I seriously think that it would have been quite difficult to discover that there was a problem with this one. The proof that it wasn't evident is not only that upstream didn't see the problem either, nor any other developer or derivative distribution or independent reviewers in 2 years. I think that defending the position of using pristine upstream source code are just a conservative position to guarantee that we can blame upstream or someone else if something like this happens again, not that bugs won't happen. Only those who don't do anything don't make mistakes. The point is to try to avoid mistakes, not to be able to blame upstream. Of course, the development and checking of the patches should be done as cooperatively with upstream as possible, as upstream might see something we're not seeing, but the way to the solution, in my opinion, is not to avoid patching but to develop a way to check them as extensively as possible. Maybe there should also be a clasification of packages according to how bad would a bug be in them for the whole system, so that patches in those could be more carefully reviewed.

I really liked it! I think it would be a great Idea, but the point would be to be able to automate the process of uploading the patches there somehow from the package source. Combined with the idea of anotating the patches in the source packages, the result might be quite useful. I'm quite afraid that if the process is not automatic, but manual, the amount of extra work and redundancy of uploading the patches twice (once for the package, another one for the patches alone) will lead to very few developers participating, and also to desynchronization between the patches being uploaded and the real patches in the packages.

I agree there too. That's the problem I'm interested in solving too, and I think that the proposed solution of having some pseudoheaders added to the patches and an automated system to fetch those patches and publish them automatically would be the best solution. This would allow an easy inspection, not only from upstream, but also from people from other distros, third parties and Debian collaborators.

Re: Use bz2 not gz for orig.tar ?
According to the benchmarks in http://www.linuks.mine.nu/sizematters/ , the size of the archive would be nearly 30% smaller, but the decompression would be 5 times slower, meaning that it would take 500% the time it takes now to uncompress the archives. Compression time would be 10 times more (1000% the time it takes now). I wonder if that would be suitable for smaller systems.

It reduces size even more and doesn't suffer from the "all our code belongs to propietary programs" licensing curse. http://www.linuks.mine.nu/sizematters/ (look for p7zip here; same algorithm, different implementation) It can be used for data.tar as well.

Re: Reasonable maximum package size ?
2007/6/5, Michael Hanke <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: Hi, I'm packaging some neuroimaging tools that come with datasets that are required for those tools to work properly. The size of these datasets is up to 400 MB (some others at least well over 100 MB). My question is now: Is it reasonable to provide this rather huge amount of data in a package in the archive? An alternative to a dedicated package would be to provide a download/install script for the data (like the msttcorefonts package) that is called at package postinst. Another alternative would be to provide a package like the (googleearth-package)-package. This would have the advantage that the users could easily build packages, that they can distribute themselves. Arguments for download wrappers/package-maker would be: - only the datasets fill yet another CD - only very few people actually benefit from this package (it is a rather very-special-interest-package) - datasets change infrequently - saves a lot of diskspace in archive and mirrors Arguments for a package: - much easier to handle for users (thinking of offline machines) - if upstream goes offline, the relevant software package in the archive are basically useless as the required datasets are not distributed anymore - diskspace is rather cheap and bandwith should be no problem as the number of downloads will remain relatively low. There was already a little discussion about this, starting from here: http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2007/05/msg00207.html I'd like to hear you comments about this.

Hi, I have different plans for Debian Jr than those in from Debian-Edu if I was to adopt that project. It would be nice to talk about it. I'll try to find time to write a text on my view about the future of the Debian Jr Project as soon as I can.

The same way that we're not allowing GFDL packages with invariant sections, we might not want this feature/bug of GPL to be used for that either. I would support making such a decision.

I have some ideas and I plan to do work on this. I just didn't have time until now because this weeks have been really exahusting at work, and also due to some personal matters involving someone in my close family and the hospital. I might be a bit away these days, but I'm definitely not giving up the project :) >> Hm.

I want to have children and teenagers somehow involved in the development of what would be their distribution too, and I think I know how to achieve that. >> Basically, to keep Debian Jr. distinct, I would suggest branding :) > > Not a bad technical solution, as I said.

Whatever I do, I don't plan to have separate repositories of any kind, but to use Debian's, so my plan would lead to effectively create a Debian branding targeted to kids. Greetings, Miry PS: I'm sorry for not beint more verbose right now.

That has been my plan since I said I was going to take care of the project. I want us to make a distro for children and teens made by youth themselves (of course, with the necessary technical assistance from our side), in which they can get involved, they can control its evolution and that they can feel it as their own (and not as externally imposed to them). I seriously think the best way of making it work is by having the kids themselves giving feedback and taking as much decisions as possible and my roadplan goes along those lines. The first step will be to design and develop the infrastructure needed for kids to get involved, and that's the point where I'm currently at. I plan to write more extensively on this when I have some time, but if anyone who likes kids or is a kid her/himself has time and is willing to get involved in helping push a project like this and wants to contact me, I'll be willing to get some time out of nowhere to explain my vision, to listen to alternative proposals to things I might be considering, and to coordinate.

Please don't take my comment as an active opposition to that name, it is not. In fact it doesn't bother me too much how we call them, but it's the concept I'm interested in. All I was saying is that I don't particurally like the game, but if it has been voted and the rest of the people likes it, I can live with it :) Greetings, Miry -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
