You should contact the developers of Parley (who are still working on the
application) on the KDE edu mailinglist. The KDE Edu developers will have to
decide on this. Besides features, there are more conditions for one project
to replace another, especially if both are still under heavy development. To
name one, your project is currently Qt only, so it offers little integration
with KDE (parley offers a plasmoid, to name a very cool thing). Another is
long-term viability - a project with more than one developer has a much
smaller chance of becoming discontinued, so we generally prefer such a
project over another.

I would suggest looking for integration and cooperation with Parley as a
first option, especially before starting to talk about replacing. I could
imagine the Parley developers wouldn't be happy with that suggestion, and
you need their approval (as team members of the KDE Edu team) for inclusion.
I'm not saying they have such big ego's, but we all like our own work, we're
only human. Maybe a merger between the two projects would/could be the best
option for all!
