What is the difference between TuxRacer and PlanetPenguin Racer? TuxRacer is not in Ubuntu 7.04's repositories but PlanetPenguin Racer is, and I'm not sure why.

Even though TuxRacer is open source Sunspire Studios also created a commercial TuxRacer game. When they stopped selling the commercial version a fork called PlanetPenguin Racer was created from the last GPL-licensed version of Tux Racer. Read this (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tuxracer#History) wiki entry for more information. PlanetPenguin Racer includes additional levels created by the community.
