There are some differences between the distributions.

Programs that are only in russian distro:
"other/period/trunk/period.asm"
"games/ataka"
"games/WHTBAM"
"games/padenie"
"pipetka"

Programs that are not in russian distro:
"games/soko/trunk/SOKO.ASM"

Is there anybody who is willing to translate one of the russian-only programs to english?
Who knows the reason why the last application is not in the russian distro (game + data take too much space?)

Wow, you have just noticed that? :lol: Of course there are! Otherwise, 5 different "data" folders wouldn't have been necessary :wink:

Programs are only in Russian distro but not in others (English, Spanish, etc.) for 1 (or more) of 3 reasons:
1) Author has left the project, and there are no sources available
2) Sources cannot be compiled by current auto-build script
3) The [already compiled] program has only Russian translation

"games/ataka" (1+3) viewtopic.php?f=41&t=1197 (No luck here)
"games/WHTBAM" (2+3) - I can translate it after someone figures out how to build it using auto-build script, it's a text-only game "Who wants to be a millionaire?"
"games/padenie" (1+3) viewtopic.php?f=41&t=1190 (No luck here)
"pipetka" (1+3) viewtopic.php?f=38&t=1450 (No luck here)

Indeed, I removed it from Russian distro because the ramdisk was out of space at one point, and this game's EXE+data take too much space which could be used better for other, smaller programs. English distro didn't have this problem because the programs you mentioned above (and one more: KLAVISHA, or more precisely, the resource files of KLAVISHA) are not in the English distro.
