Hi ! I'd like to know peoples opinions on some web pages I'm developing. 
The idea is to use DJGPP and Dos as a basic platform for developing free 
games in a piecemeal fashion. The idea is to use existing libraries, with 
game specific extensions, to make several general games engines, and then 
several games. The games will be free with free source code, unless a 
game looks good enough to be commercial, when (through group consensus) 
it will be released as shareware, with some of the profits (if any) going 
to the DJGPP developers as a donation. The games will be released under 
the banner of DJGPP projects (or maybe a more imaginative name) and all 
contributors will be listed, with contributions, in publically available 
info files.

The web homepage up at the moment has the basic info, and all the pages 
will be up in about a week. I won't be actively working on it for another 
week or two, as I wish to provide some sample programs, and get to know 
allegro better.
