In recognition of the value of FOSS gaming, the Ubuntu Gaming Team has been

now open for anyone to join and participate in. Working towards improving
FOSS games and developing its community will turn a significant barrier
In response to Oli, isn't your first argument like comparing Windows to
Ubuntu? Maybe Ubuntu is a little bit ahead compared to FOSS gaming versus
proprietary games, but that's what this team was set up to change. We
understand the arguments for porting commercial games to Linux, and don't
deny

Could a solution be to simply link to Debian/Ubuntu games team for

but i really don't foresee any other confusion. If it becomes a problem then
it'll definitely be worth changing, but i don't think it will be.
