Like many roguelikes, it has a shared high score file and Bones files

all users are meant to have their scores and final data written to. As a
result, the game is forced to run setgid games so that it has the rights to
write to /var/games/ivan/. While packaging this application, I got a lot of
help from some of the Fedora-KDE guys (hi Kevin, Ben) and they both
suggested I run this through Fedora Security SIG so that the game would
properly demote itself to non-setgid when it doesn't need to.
What is the proper channel to go about this? Should I just mail to the
security list? Should I put this package up for review beforehand/in the
meantime?
The game must drop setuid as early as possible:

If you need help, consider writing to the fedora-games-list:
