I'm not a general games packager, but as Team Member of the SUSE 
Autobuild team, I'm responsible for all package check-ins that end up 
in the official openSUSE distribution.

Reminds me to ask for a "education" mailinglist. ;-) 
Our Education Buildservice project gets more and more upstream 
maintainers and Fedora and Debian build targets are just "one click 
away" - but without enough knowledge it's not easy to package for other 
distributions. 
But perhaps it's even more interesting to have a 
general "cross-distribution" packagers mailinglist? 
What do you think?

=> subscribed. :-)

With kind regards,
