Yes Dan. Thank you so much for taking out time and re-writing "How to play"
section. We have added you as a contributor to Deducto and Color Deducto
activities, and have
removed the existing section with the one prepared by you. Appreciate your
support.

Sure, completely agree. We have received the same feedback on the
positioning of "Sample" as a menu item. We have changed its placement to the
main view in Deducto-2.xo and ColorDeducto-2.xo.

On a separate note, spacing among "Yes", "No" and "Sample" widgets needs
some improvement at this juncture in the second versions too.

Thank you very much for posting this issue. This has been fixed in the
revised bundle uploaded on a.s.l.o (
http://activities.sugarlabs.org/en-US/sugar/addon/4220 and
http://activities.sugarlabs.org/en-US/sugar/addon/4221) today.

My apologies. Yes, we need to simplify this feature, and add a help guide
for using it in the game. Ashita has been working on developing a user guide
for "creating your own game" activity feature. Will share the guide with
everyone on the mailing list soon.

Thank you once again.

Regards,

Manu
