Given the tremendous quality of Ryzom among the dismal array of free/libre MMORPGs, I found it unfortunate that it is not included in Fedora's default repository. Sadly, I have neither the experience in packaging nor the time and discipline to learn. If someone with experience in maintaining packages (and preferably someone already involved with Ryzom development) would step up to the task, that would be great. The criteria for Fedora package maintainers are found here:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/PackageMaintainers/Join
Obvious Benefits:
- Make Fedora a better GNU/Linux distribution by adding yet another quality game to its core repos
- Expand Ryzom's user base and thus its number of subscribers
Downsides:
- Somebody has to go through the trouble of submitting the package and then maintaining it for subsequent releases.
