Hi,
Pairs is a KDE4 application, and I thought would also kept in all the
Kubuntu releases that also support KDE4.
If it doesn't make any problem (and I think is not) would be really cool to
have the last Long Term support (16.04) with KDE4 and Pairs.
I could still intall that on the Kindergarten project (since the kid
already know the game) and gradually introduce GCompris.
Is that feasable or is it a big problem?
Cheers
Marco

</span>Hi,<br>
<br>
On the GCompris side we are pleased to hear that. It is true that it is<br>
easier to maintain an activity in GCompris than a separate application.<br>
<br>
We already have a 'pair' activity that we call 'memory'. It has \
many<br> data sets, images, numbers, maths, and others and we have an 'AI' \
mode<br> to play against Tux. Some 'pair' level could be easily ported to \
GCompris.<br> <br>
The user interface is different as we do not have a 'pair' menu entry.<br>
We have sections and in each one there maybe an appropriate 'pair'<br>
activity. I hope this is not an issue.<br>
