Per the Council decision, this is strictly up to the maintainer's discretion. I'm all for a more sensible solution. If you want to help form one I suggest joining the games team. As of the last call I don't believe anybody stepped up to join it. The fact that the current state is inconsistent has been pointed out numerous times already, and was known by the Council at the time the interim policy was decided on. The only real virtue of the current state is that it is less broken than the previous state. It was our hope that those interested in Gentoo games would step up and come up with something better, rather than having the council micromanage the games team. If you are interested in games, then I suggest being a part of this. If you aren't interested in games, then I'm not sure why we're having this conversation. -- Rich
