Summary

Resurrect happypenguin.org

Description
This particular site appeared in the year 1998 with the goal to make gaming on Linux easier and more fun. Unfortunately, 2013 the site went down due to lack of funding and time for the creator Bob Zimbinski. He released the database to the public but removed the code itself because it was created in the 90's and was a big security risk. I want to resurrect happypenguin.org and I want some brave souls who want to participate with this. I am not a coder (I can only sysadmin) so It would be awesome if someone wanted to help out with this. Would be awesome if you could make if look like the classic site, or make it very similar to it or https://distrowatch.com/ that also has a very retro style to it. It would also be great if the site was ad-free. I will take care of the hosting part (servers, DNS, domain). If you want to participate, send a email to linux@linux.pizza or join the mailinglist to recieve updates once in a while: https://short.linux.pizza/list
