Does anyone know if it is possible to run the lucasfangames in ScummVM?

Both the new maniac mansion deluxe and The New Adventures of Zak McKracken
look exactly like the other 'real' scumm games, question is if it is possible to play
them on the GP32 or on ScummVM?

Does Anyone know?
 
The only way would be if the guy who wrote AGS were to port it across. Which is unlikely - iirc he's kept it closed-source (can't remember the reasoning, but it made sense) and isn't doing port requests. Quite apart from the fact that, if I remember correctly, it relies quite heavily on Windows archetecture and such. Could be wrong, though...
 
As people say, they use there own engine (AGS) so they will never work in ScummVM.

As for porting AGS, lets just say some emails are bouncing about but it's unlightly.
