Your project has been approved.

Your project is only one file but please include the full GPL License
along with the distribution.
(http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl.txt copy it, for
instance, into a file named COPYING).

The GPL FAQ can help you to understand the reason behind
thoses obligations. For example, there is a entry explaining
why does the GPL require including a copy of the GPL with
every copy of the program:
 http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-faq.html#WhyMustIInclude


Also, could you please try to get your project working
with php3 ? The php4 license has restrictions that forbids
distribution of modified source packages. It is important
to use php3 so that php people know that the Free Software
community is embarassed by this restriction.

Finally, "Linux" is just a kernel of a more complex system
that we like to refer to as GNU/Linux, to emphasize
the ideals of the Free Software movement.

Would you mind changing occurences of Linux as OS
to GNU/Linux?
