Hi,

Before tackling the long-term goal of adding a nice GUI to game-data-packager;
I've been playing with building a HTML page that gives an overview
with all packages available:

http://users.teledisnet.be/ade15809/babel.html

Now, this server is still using Debian Lenny ( http://users.teledisnet.be/give_me_a_404 )
and when my FTP user account was locked-out last year I had a hard time 
to find someone smart enough at my ISP to acknoweledge that
this server even still exists.

Do you find this usefull ?
If so I'd like this to be moved to some more reliable Debian infrastructure.

With my Alioth ssh key, I could put this at
http://pkg-games.alioth.debian.org/game-data/ ;
which maps to
@moszumanska:/srv/home/groups/pkg-games/htdocs/game-data

But this needs a "chmod g+w" then ?
"drwxr-sr-x 2 pabs        pkg-games   4096 fév 26  2012 game-data"


My HTML skills are stuck in the 90's but I guess Debian users
would like it that way. Maybe some javascript to filter by language
would be nice though.


I've also compiled a list on GOG.com:
https://www.gog.com/mix/games_supported_by_debians_gamedatapackager


Steam has a similar system called Curator, but it's a bit more complicated
with more functionality, where the "Curator" can be a group of several
users acting as 'curator officers'
http://store.steampowered.com/curators/topcurators/

So first step would be to create a group (name = ?)
and add people willing to "work" on this
(well it takes 5 seconds to add a game).


Cheers,

Alexandre Detiste
