I'd welcome collaborative maintenance of xpilot-ng.  I was on the point
of giving up on xpilot, but a co-maintainer never materialized, and I
wasn't prepared to just orphan it without someone to take it over.

These points in particular are relevant to Debian Jr.  We haven't taken
a good look at what's in Jr. for kids and decided if there are better
alternatives in quite a long time.  I'd also like to make it easier for
children to find games that particularly interest them (acknowledging
that interests change as children mature).
