  Description     : Open re-implementation of Medal of Honor: Allied Assault including Spearhead and Breakthrough expasnions

The main goal of OpenMoHAA is to ensure the future and continuity of Medal of Honor: Allied Assault (including Spearhead and Breakthrough expansions) on all platforms/architectures by providing new patches/features. Thanks to the ioquake3 project and the F.A.K.K SDK, OpenMoHAA has already reached more than half of its goal: an open-source version of MoH:AA (based on version 2.40) that is fully compatible with both the original game and expansions, in terms of network protocol, assets, and scripts. OpenMoHAA is compatible with both MOH:AA servers and clients (Spearhead and Breakthrough included).

Besides RTCW and Doom3 it would also be nice to have OpenMOHAA in 
Debian. As it would need the game-data from e.g. gog binaries it would 
have to be provided via contrib, as RTC and Doom3 as well.

Maybe the Debian Games Team would be interested in packaging this.

Best regards,
Martin
