[Kde-games-devel] Moving KDots to KDE Review

[Minh Ngo]

Hi Ian,

It's in KDEReview now, https://projects.kde.org/projects/kdereview/kdots .
Sorry about the broken link. KSquares and KDots are different games. I'm
talking about this game https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dots_%28game%29 .

Cheers,

Minh
