Hello Paul,

I=E2=80=99m delighted to say we are able to offer you the GCompris =
videos to post on your own channels after all, and apologise for the =
hiatus while we sorted this out internally.=20

At some point soon I will give you the link to the latest video like we =
did last time, and look forward to seeing it on peer tube as well as YT.=20=


As for your other points below (about us having an account there and a =
few other things), we didn=E2=80=99t have time to address that yet, but =
will consider.

In the meantime, have a great Easter break!

All the best,

Frances
