Thanks for the links. I understand games have been the subject of a |
| 61 |
lot of 'discussion' on the ML over the past few years. What do you |
| 62 |
believe to be some of the main blockers to getting more dev |
| 63 |
participation? From what I gather, a decent portion of us play games |
| 64 |
on our systems, so it seems reasonable to get more maintainership |
| 65 |
spread out. There's a lot of user interest too, as Ian pointed out. |
