Certainly I can't recommend game-data-packager with the debian-games metapackages because that would go against the DFSG. However I don't see any problems when we mention your project on the website. This offers a good opportunity to show the differences between our DFSG-free games and the common case of games in contrib which provide a free engine but without free artwork. We could also expand on this idea and highlight packages like cube2-data or lgeneral-data which made it possible to move their respective engines to main. To the same effect we could create a list of contrib games which could be moved to main when certain conditions are met. In my opinion it's a good idea to talk about the various aspects of free software games. People will appreciate the efforts of projects like 0ad, megaglest or supertuxkart even more when they know how much work is required to create free game content. Another idea might be to create a dedicated blend for contrib/non-free packages or something similar which evolves around game-data-packager. That would possibly draw more attention to free engines with non-free game data and perhaps somebody feels motivated enough to fix those bugs by creating free artwork. Regards, Markus
