Thanks for making efforts to fit in with PPA terms of use. As I
recall, the problem previously was that the developer had insisted you
be the only person who could redistribute the game.

If the game is now freely distributable, then it is okay by the PPA
terms of use.

The terms say this:

  "any content you upload to PPAs must be freely redistributable by Canonical,
   and released under a license permitting redistribution free of charge."

Yes, I believe that fits the requirements of the PPA terms of use.
It'd be good to post a statement from the developer, or something
similar, in the PPA description. I think you did something similar
before.

Thanks.
