Great!
Can you start by listing the games you have in FreeBSD which are not
in Debian? Perhaps with a short overview of what patches you have,
work that needs to be done, etc. I am willing to bet others will want to
package it or have a patch or two of their own.

You can be the first person to actually put some beef onto the list.
Go for it! :)

Did that, too. Thanks :)
