Re: [Savannah-hackers] savannah.gnu.org: submission of jxSokoban

[Loic Dachary]

        Hi,

        Could you please submit your project again when you're done with
implementing compatibility with a Free Software Java suite (gnu classpath
or another). I hope you understand that Savannah is not fit to host software
that cannot be run with existing Free Software.

        I took a look and noticed that you're using GIF files. Could
you convert them to PNG or JPG ? As part of the requirements you've
read when registering the project, it is said that GIF files cannot
be hosted on Savannah (http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/gif.html).

        Lastly, in order to release a software under the GNU GPL you
must state it withing the distribution itself. This is best done by
including a copy of the GNU GPL in the distribution and adding
copyright/license notices in each files as instructed by the GNU GPL
itself.

        Thanks in advance,
