I though that maybe some of you would like to participate in the discussion / advertise Spring.

I'd rather not push anything on the people who play my project.

Agreed.
Linux fanboyz are as bad as any other fanboy I see. People will switch to Linux if/when it becomes more convienient for them to use Linux, if you FORCE them to use Linux all you'll do is piss them off. Sure, they'll be using Linux, but i doubt they'll be singing your praises.

Sounds like the tone of the page is less that FOSS games should serve the Linux distros than "distros should take FOSS/game projects under their wing, *financially, even* to encourage their development.
That is, projects like Spring and OpenArena need to be adopted by Novell et al.
