        :-) Thanks.

        There currently is no license information on your software. Could
you include the GNU GPL (General Public License and not GNU Public License ;-)
and add a license and copyright notice as instructed at the end of the 
GNU GPL ? 

        When this is done, could you please submit your project again ?

        Thanks for your patience,
