Hi Alexander, great work on keeping Knights chess board in good shape!

'KNights' spelling is obviously wrong. Please file a bug for 
'www.kde.org' to change it to 'Knights' consistently.

How about adding it to the other KDE games that are released with our 
regular KDE Applications bundle? Games from the old 'extragear' or 
'playground' groups never really got attention.

The 18.12 schedule isn't up yet, but I am sure there is still enough 
time for the transition (including review, etc.)

What is the status of themes? I know I liked the 'wooden' look back when 
I tested Knights.
