Hi all,
This is indeed good news. It would be a pleasure to watch children
play gcompris and use other educational games, utilities etc. If this
is implemented positively then localization of the games not just on
the language/linguistic level would probably have a filip as well as
people could contribute to make gcompris more culturally aware as
well.
