Follow-up Comment #1:

Hi,

I'm evaluating the project you submitted for approval in Savannah.


First of all, please include a (perhaps temporary) URL pointing to the source
code. Alternatively, you can forward the code to me by email or attach it to
this tracker. The URLs you mentioned in your project description seem to be
placeholders only and I was unable to download a tarball from those
locations.

We wish to review your source code, even if it is not functional, to catch
potential legal issues early.

For example, to release your program properly under the GNU GPL you must
include a copyright notice and permission-to-copy statements at the beginning
of every  copyrightable file, usually any file more than 10 lines long.  This
is explained in http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-howto.html.  Our review would
help catch potential omissions such as these.

Note that sending code to our repositories _is_ a release, since the code
will then be publicly available through anonymous access.


Another thing I've noticed is that the type of the project is 'Official GNU
Software' and you mention that you want to 'donate' the code to the FSF/GNU.
Please note that this is not the GNU Evaluation. This is the Savannah
evaluation, to check whether your project complies with the Savannah hosting
rules (a subset of the GNU Evaluation policies), and get a place to host your
project. If you are approved at Savannah and want to be part of GNU, then we
usually approve your project as non-GNU and forward your submission to the
GNU Eval team.

If you do not want to host your project here, but want to have your project
evaluated by the GNU Eval team, then you only need to write to
address@hidden

Can you clarify this point?


Another note: the correct term for the operating system consisting of GNU and
Linux is 'GNU/Linux', not 'GNU Linux'. We'd really like you to use 'GNU/Linux'
when referring to the GNU operating system running on top of the Linux
kernel.


To help us better keep track of your registration, please use the tracker's
web interface following the link below. Do not reply directly, the
registration process is not driven by e-mail, and we will not receive such
replies.

Regards.
