As the saying goes, 'Use the source!'. If you have an aptitude for
coding and want to see a feature, code it. If you can't code,
tell people like Darryl Strauss who mess with graphics that you
want AlphaLinux support. Heck, even throw together a petition
with lots of signatures to send.

The worst thing you can do is sit there and whine about missing
features while contributing no useful content nor code.
Phil Ezolt just volunteered to set up a games/demos segment
of the ALO website. Judging from the discussion of related
topics lately, I expect many of you will be interested in
contributing.
