Bug#385115: Chromium BSU sounds/music issue

[Mark B. Allan]

Hi Paul - 

That's an accurate summary. I started working on the music,
but I never finished... and chances are good that I won't
ever get back to it. That's fine if you want to go ahead
and repackage it, although I do ask that you make it clear
that the distribution has been altered (to comply with the
Artistic License)

I have no idea what search terms I used to find the
sounds... that was a looong time ago and probably something
as simple as 'explosion' :) I actually did create some of
the sounds myself, but I couldn't tell you which ones at
this point. 

As a side note, I just went to the partnersinrhyme website
- they do explicitly say that it's ok to distribute the
loops in video games:
http://www.partnersinrhyme.com/pir/free_music_loops.shtml
Don't know if that's enough to comply w/ Debian's policy.

Cheers,
-Mark
