@quozl we just need to add a copying file, so this can be merged. |

Please make sure that the version number in activity.info incremented to 3.

@tony37 OK! |

@yashagrawal3, you might defer this activity to later in your list, because it will be a huge time sink. This activity needs much more than a COPYING file. It needs;
@alesegovia may have some ideas on how to proceed. |

I really wish you would be a bit more careful with the facts. There was
no repository for this activity, so it is impossible that i destroyed
anything.
Why would you merge translations from one activity to another when
neither has been ported to GTK3?
Porting to GTK3 (no evidence that it deserves a +), should affect the
wrapper code and not the binary. Making this activity or gnuchess
available for the Ubuntu Sugar would be helpful.
A simple alternative is to install gnuchess on the Gnome desktop and
then prepare a simple wrapper from the HelloWorld activity (GTK3 version
in the repository). The wrapper would execute gnuchess in Sugar.
EndGame activity is a different animal as it teaches simple end games in
chess.
I appreciate your including release in the set of tasks, something which
has not been done. One of your bullets should be to increment the
version number.

This activity needs much more than a COPYING file. It needs;
* restoring the git history lost when @tony37
<https://github.com/tony37> created the repository from a bundle
instead of using http://git.sugarlabs.org/ceibal-chess or
https://github.com/alesegovia/ceibal-chess
* add license metadata in activity.info (which can be found in
@alesegovia <https://github.com/alesegovia>'s repository), along
with a license for the embedded binary,
* removing the MANIFEST file,
* updating the embedded binary to the latest version and including
other architectures; or adding a dependency that must be resolved
before installing the activity.
* perhaps merging translations from the SimpleGNUChess activity on
https://translate.sugarlabs.org
* testing,
* porting to GTK+ 3,
* testing,
* release.
@alesegovia <https://github.com/alesegovia> may have some ideas on how
to proceed.

There were two repositories. You destroyed, by ignoring, commits to those repositories. You've done it several times now; but I'm not surprised, as you aren't an activity maintainer yet. GTK+ is the name to the toolkit according to both The GTK+ Project and Wikipedia. It deserves a "+" because that's the name the authors used. I'll continue to credit their work by using the proper name. The list of tasks for an activity maintainer is in Translations should be merged to honour the work done by translators; it is the same activity, based on recursive comparison of files. I don't plan to make this activity available for "Ubuntu Sugar", because it is in terrible shape. If someone were to maintain it, then I'd be a bit more interested. |

As Sugar Labs is migrating to a new activity server, activity repositories such as this now require a separate file for the license. Based on your .py files, it seems that the license is GPL version 2, which I have added as a separate file in this pull request. Please merge this pull request. Thank you!
