Re: [Trisquel-users] Desura goes opensource

This probably won't ever happen. Ubuntu has their "app store" (backed by  
their apt repo) that they want to monetize, so it would definitely not be in  
their best interest to allow a competing one through. But assuming it is  
included in Ubuntu, even then Trisquel would have no use for it - changing it  
to only allow free games would require running our own Desura server (which  
we can't - the server code remains proprietary, so we'd have to write one  
from scratch) and the result is worse than worthless, because free games can  
be (and are!) already found through apt.
