	I think the games should be split into ports and original games. Of course, this might sometimes be hard to decide, for example with Wizzley Presto, which is a new original game but could also be called a port from the iPhone version...

		+	This concept is rediculously unmaintainable and ''needs to be removed''. This page admits right away that it's taking information from [http://apps.open-pandora.org/cgi-bin/viewarea.pl?Games Pandora Apps], the [http://dl.openhandhelds.org/cgi-bin/pandora.cgi?0,0,0,0,9 File Archive], the [http://repo.openpandora.org/?page=all&s=new Repo]. ''Don't do that!'' If those listings need to be improved, then ''improve those listings'', don't duplicate the effort here.

 I think this (http://pandorawiki.org/Software_projects#Skins) should be either moved to an entirely different page (like a page for minimenu, which could be used for other stuff, too - like tracking beta versions) or at least below the Operating systems category, does not really make sense to mention the skins before mentioning the actual program they are used with. Also I feel like skins don't really fall into the category of "software" so I would favour the first approach. [[User:Foxblock|Foxblock]] 15:43, 16 April 2011 (MEST)
 :Full ack, I would suggest to put it on [[Minimenu skins]], any cons? --[[User:ABC|ABC]] 10:55, 27 April 2011 (MEST)
-:There's a high probability that it would not just be Minimenu skins in the future. Right now, although it's not software, it's software related so I think it does count as a "software project". There aren't really that many of them right now anyway, so I don't think it does anything bad for this page; if there get to be a lot more, I think it would make sense to move them.

 Hi, I created a template that creates the same table [[User:ABC/playground]] but has some pros (in my oppinion):
-* easy to edit, cause people see what they change
+* easy to edit, cause people see what they change esp. if not familar with wiki table syntax
 * seperates content from it's representation
 * alter/extend representation at any time without any troubles
 Would it be ok for you if I change all tables in that kind? --[[User:ABC|ABC]] 19:29, 26 April 2011 (MEST)
