We are looking into the possibility of creating a #Luanti for Edu/Kids edition which would be a new app on the play store and a new download from luanti.org. It will (1) provide tools for parents/teachers to manage kids (2) achieve a lower age rating, aiming for age 6.

We're looking to get in touch with someone who know about age ratings and our obligations. Perhaps someone from #IARC/#USK/another board who also knows about open source. Does anyone have any connections we could talk to?

@Luanti Wouldn’t that be a PERFECT opportunity to massively extend the game’s possibilities regarding client customization and setup/permissions, instead of creating a new client in parallel to the currently existing client?

Most of these capabilities would be available in the normal Luanti client. The problem is that to achieve a lower age rating, the client needs to be safe by default. It's not enough that you can turn unsafe stuff off, otherwise the current Luanti client wouldn't be 12+. We don't want to reduce the possibilities of our main client, so would like to make a new client specifically for this purpose
