Someone should add Nexuiz to the directory. A developer would be more qualified than just a user.

They actually got very little games in that directory compared to the ammount of free games that can be found at sites like Freshmeat and Happypenguin...

Holy fucking shit.. how stupid are those guys?
They entered my email address for Announce List, Help List, Developer List and Bug List and made the entry in Games/Simulation. I clearly wrote NO adress for those mailing lists, have the official adress for support and said its a shooter!

Not only that, but they put:
1. "Linux" instead of GNU/Linux
2.
Meaning, it is entirely free and any of it can be used in other free projects, even if modified. This is a first for any large game project of its type. We hope this will support the free game community, and encourage more GPL projects.

3.
Because Nexuiz is based on the Quake1 engine, its source code along with its content is entirely GPL.


On the FSF site!

Saying it's free makes sense there. But everything in the FSF Directory is free.
