Used by some demos and games. Are you going to package the stable or developmental version? If the latter, and I get in touch with the developer of dgen (a Sega Genesis emulator) about a license clarification, since I don't see one anywhere in the tarball or on the page (but I don't think I'll have a problem convincing him to put it under the GPL or some other DFSG-free license), then I'll see about packaging it. So this is a semi-ITP for dgen. Also, there's two possible packages: a regular dgen package that can be recompiled on different architectures and a i386 dgen package that has some CPU cores written in assembly that give a performance boost. Actually, technically 4, since there's two different CPU cores, and I could just make packages for each combination of the two, but I think in this case that's overkill, since if one core can be used, the other core can be used, and there's no reason of which I know not to use the cores. So, anyway, what would be a good naming structure? dgen and dgen-intel, dgen and dgen-i386, dgen and dgen-starscream-mz80 (the name of the cores, this one seems too long, but would be nice if a reason for not including one of the cores was discovered)...? Any suggestions are welcome :) Thanks, Stevie -- "First they came for the fourth amendment, but I said nothing because I wasn't a drug dealer.
