Hi guys,

I am interested in contributing emulators, games and other amusements 
which can't be included in Fedora for legal/policy reasons.  I'm 
currently working on making the non-free pSX Sony Playstation emulator 
work on a modern system which uses PulseAudio [1].  It's considered the 
best emulator for the PS1 on Windows and works almost identically on 
GNU/Linux, but is difficult to get included in distributions (especially 
Fedora) for both legal and upstream abandonment reasons.

Since I've never packaged software for any project before, I'm guessing 
I need someone to sponsor me.  I'm completely new to contributing but 
I'm not new to using Fedora and would like to give something back to the 
community which has provided a decent product (for free, even!) for many 
years.  I'd also like to make the same packages I submit available for 
RHEL, as they're going to be mostly gaming-related, the usual 
ABI/versioning considerations are likely to be less of an issue.

Looking forward to working with you guys to bring more 
games/entertainment to Fedora!

Regards,

Martyn Hare
