Hi Mike,

thank you for looking at the package. There are people waiting for this 
package for there free children computer courses. Therefor I tried to get it 
out quickly.
I also wanted to ask my sponsor to give me DMU rights on the package for the 
"point release".

The upstream of the package is inactive since 2009 and wrote me that he has 
no interest to continue the package. However the code is in good shape and I 
can fix bugs myself and I might also take over upstream development. So 
there's no real place to point a watch file to ATM.

I could write a trivial manpage but what's the point for a GUI app with no 
single command line option? The manpage could point to the documentation 
and tell curious bypassers what the program is about. Is it possible to 
override the lintian warning?

I can write a manpage if you insist.

Regards, Thomas
