It would be great to have GCompris join the KDE community.  Although
I'll only agree to it if you promise not to change the name :)

Our licence policy requires projects to be GPL 2+, this is simply to
ensure an easy life when sharing code between projects in KDE.

Would you be willing and able to relicence to GPL 2+?

If not we can canvas opinions on an exception for GCompris, there's no
formal process to it and if nobody has strong objections we just
declaire it so and make sure the GCompris repository is well marked as
being differently licenced.
