Follow-up Comment #3, task #9115 (project administration):
>The project is free and Open Source !!! What more !!!???
When you applied for registration you checked off "I agree with the hosting
requirements", but it seems you skipped over reading the hosting requirements
[1]. In particular read the section "Speaking About Free Software."
To get an idea of why this site prefers not to use the term "Open Source"
view the article "Why “Open Source” misses the point of Free Software"
[2]. This article is written in other languages if you need it.

When you say free on your website it seems you mean as in the software does
not require any money. The Free Software perspective does not mean that you
should not make money off of your software. Actually, it encourages that you
make money off of your software. In my opinion, if you want your software to
survive, you may want to modify this to mean that everyone has their freedoms
with your software and thus can contribute in real ways to your software. By
not encouraging freedom, you will discourage others from contributing to your
project.
>It is a Gnu/linux sect here ??
Why not? If your Linux kernel is going to do anything with Artica-postfix it
better have the fundamental GNU software :)
