He-he :).
The most exciting feature is hidden from user :).
And it is: kreversi is using QGraphicsView framework.
What user will actually see is the addition of the "Demo" mode, i.e. he/she 
can see the computer vs computer battles now :).
Also I plan to implement player vs player game (I found a corresponding wish).
And it has no configuration dialog - I moved most options to KSelectActions in 
Settings menu. Do you know is it ok from usability point of view?

Other than that it looks like good-old kreversi :).

Another thing is that I tried to abstract game process from it's graphical 
representation as much as possible. This fact can be used in future to write 
some more graphical "engines". OpenGL for example. Or QPainter-based if that 
makes sence.

That said I haven't tried to see how abstract it actually is now (although it 
_seems_ quite abstract to me). I think the best way to figure this out is to 
write simple QPainter based engine to find possible cornerstones :).

Cheers,
Dmitry.
