Hi!
I (along with affected package maintainers from other Linux distros
and *BSD OSes) was notified by Stephen Sweeney of Parallel Realities
that their free games (Blob Wars: Metal Blob Solid, Blob Wars: Blob
And Conquer, Project: Starfighter and Virus Killer - blobwars,
blobandconquer, starfighter and viruskiller ports under games/
respectively) may (and most likely, do) contain content copyrighted
by third parties.
Seems like we'll have to remove ports to avoid possible problems,
but I wonder if it is really necessary - won't RESTRICTED be enough
so just the only thing we host/mirror is the port itself?
