Hi all, I'm currently experimenting with some new tasks for the Games Blend to facilitate the development of games in different programming languages. For now I have created: http://blends.debian.org/games/tasks/c++-dev http://blends.debian.org/games/tasks/python-dev http://blends.debian.org/games/tasks/java-dev I would like to hear your opinion about these tasks. Do you miss something like libraries, editors or tools? What kind of development packages would you prefer? The general idea is to suggest several IDEs/editors and recommend important libs and packages for games development but keep out everything else that is not specifically related to games. You can also suggest packages that are not in Debian yet. I think python-dev is relatively simple (it's all about python-pygame, isn't it ;) ). I'm also going to ask on debian-java for more input about java-dev. Contributions in the form of commits are much appreciated but please keep in mind that this Blend does not recommend or suggest packages from contrib or non-free because I think we should focus on Debian's core brand. However we could create a specific task like »games-how-can-I-help« which in turn would then include links and suggestions to packages in contrib desperately in need for free data. I'm also thinking about introducing »games-perl-dev« and a separate task for pulling in -data-packages with assets like images, textures or sound files. Feedback is welcome. Regards, Markus
