Follow-up Comment #1:

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


At first, we need a detailed technical description that specifies such
requirements as programming languages and external libraries.
It should be at least one-half a page.



At second, please include a (perhaps temporary) URL pointing to the source
code.
The description you gave when registering will not be read by the general
public.
If you are still concerned with privacy, however, you can forward the code to
me by email.

We wish to review your source code, even if it is not functional, to catch
potential legal issues early.

For example, to release your program properly under the GPL you must include
a copyright notice and
permission-to-copy statements at the beginning of every file of source code. 
This is explained in
http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-howto.html.  Our review would help catch
potential omissions such as these.



At third, if you only want to publish textbooks on Savannah, it should be
better to release your textes under the GNU FDL instead of the GNU GPL.
Why you should do this? Please read http://www.gnu.org/licenses/why-gfdl.html
:)


The general instructions for the GNU FDL are:

"In order to release your project properly and unambiguously under the FDL,
please place copyright notices and permission-to-copy statements after the
title page of each work.

In addition, if you haven't already, please add a copy of the FDL
(available from http://www.gnu.org/licenses/fdl.html in various formats)
as a section of your works , and as plain text in a file named 'COPYING'
(http://www.gnu.org/licenses/fdl.txt).

For more information, see http://www.gnu.org/licenses/fdl.html#SEC4

http://www.gnu.org/licenses/fdl-howto.html also covers additional points,
including a smaller notice that you can use in auxiliary files."



Regards and a happy GNU year - the Savannah Administration team
