Hi,

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

I have checked the sources and everything seems fine (compliance to
the GPL etc), it doesn't happen very often :)

Good!

Could you please make sure everything works using AWT, and make the
AWT mode of operation the preferred one, the one you normally develop
with and give the most attention to?

I know that using AWT is taking a step back, but sadly there is no
current free implementation of SWING.  The GNU project has had simular
problems in the past and we would rather give something older than
give up our freedom.

If you can give me a possitive answer to this question, I'll approve
your project.

Kind regards,
