[GCompris-devel] Plugin system for rcc

[Andrés Muñiz Piniella]

If I understand this correctly I think the Cbebbies bedtime stories app has something similar. You have a library and you only can have a certain amount of books (they include audio and mild animations and interactions).

On the cbeebies games from time to time the games you had are removed and new ones take their place, but I think it shows the user the progress.
