== Summary ==
 
To provide a Fedora Games Spin (live dvd) as part of the Fedora 10 release
 
== Owner ==
* Name: RahulSundaram and Games SIG
 
== Current status ==
 
* Targeted release: [[Releases/10| Fedora 10]]
* Initial kickstart file exists in git repo
* Test iso images are being produced and the game list is being adjusted due to size
* Percentage of completion: 10%
 
== Detailed Description ==
 
Fedora 8 had a games spin, which unfortunately was not maintained for Fedora 9. Fedora 10 is an attempt to revive this spin.
 
== Benefit to Fedora ==
 
It would be great to demonstrate to gamers that Fedora is a more viable platform for them. We also will be including edutainment applications for kids to learn.
 
== Scope ==
 
We will include many games that are not installed by default in the desktop spin.  Since the total set of games will not fit on a single DVD, we will try to include the more polished games available, including those that require 3D graphics support and network play.
 
== Test Plan ==
 
Release alpha and beta releases in sync with Fedora 10
 
Test that the Applications->Games menu has the correct subcategories
 
Test a sample of 3D games to ensure that they work on supported 3D hardware
 
Verify that sound (music, sound effects) work in a sample of games
 
Verify that network games work with the livedvd networking out of the box
 
Verify that automatic screen mode switching works for games in fullscreen mode
 
== User Experience ==
 
A live dvd chock full of games of all kinds--everything from nethack to Quake and more.
 
== Dependencies ==
 
This spin depends on a working -desktop and/or -xfce spin.
 
There is not a lot of interdependency between the individual games, so the final list of games that will be included will likely continue to change as new games are added before F-10 is released
 
== Contingency Plan ==
 
* Don't include a spin
 
== Documentation ==
 
* We will provide those after reaching consensus on the default set of applications
 
== Release Notes ==
 
* Ditto as documentation
 
== Comments and Discussion ==
 
* See [[Talk:Features/GamesSpin]]
