That's a good idea.

To me as well.

I wish the trademark restrictions were relaxed to include the right for
modifications made solely with the goal of
building/packaging/integrating the software with a free software
distribution.  This would make things hassle free and extra clear.

That said, I'm not opposed to include Zrythm as things stands, if other
maintainers are OK with it.
