[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

Dan,

Thanks!  I'm deprived of Guix for the moment, so I can't review 
the package itself.  Looks good on first glance, though.

I'd rather see a 'first-class' description of what this game is 
and does and drop the 'is a clone of' part entirely: 'is capable 
of playing the original Osu! beatmaps' already says it all without 
implying it's some kind of knock-off ;-)

If you don't have time fo' that I understand, but you're 
presumably familiar with both games & in the best position to 
write something accurate.

s/videocard/video card/, or graphics card.  Is it really tied to 
the kernel?  (Not entirely implausible considering the real-time 
audio nature.  Interesting design, by the way.)

Could we package these separately?  How are they licenced?

Ugh, no licence headers?  I guess that does make it GPL 3-only, 
but I'm no expert.

Kind regards,

T G-R
