Hello Marko,

thanks for your reminder. I am aware of the latest extremetuxracer
release and I have prepared a new release last year.

http://anonscm.debian.org/gitweb/?p=pkg-games/extremetuxracer.git

I asked the same question in your forum at sourceforge.net (user
apoleon), but didn't get much feedback back then.

I really like version 0.6.0 because the code is cleaner, the game needs
less dependencies and it appears it also fixes some longstanding Debian
bugs here.

However my main concern is that you support less tracks than in version
0.4.x. Please have a look at

http://packages.qa.debian.org/t/tuxracer-extras.html

This package contains additional tracks for extremetuxracer. I am
undecided if it's worth to upgrade to 0.6.0 because tuxracer-extras
won't work with this version any more.

What do you think about it?

Markus
