[Cy Schubert] > Is this still going ahead? This was my conclusion from mailing-list activites at the time (-hackers or -current - I don't remember which). It was not meant as an official statement (hence the "probably"). At this time, it seems like there is a lot of people that don't want the games to go, so I'd guess they're staying for the time being (for the forseeable future, that is.) Personally, I don't think the games belong as part of the OS, and similar sentiments had been voiced by others (including Jordan, IIRC). [Cy Schubert] > Is there any planned date for this? No - it isn't even a planned action :-) Eivind. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
