Follow-up Comment #1:

Hi,

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


You must determine whether your project can run on a Free Software Java suite
(see https://savannah.gnu.org/maintenance/JavaIssues and
http://www.gnu.org/software/java/ for more information).

We recommend you to test your project using IcedTea, or GCJ + GNU Classpath,
and ensure that your Java code runs on this Free Software Java suite.

IceTea is based on Sun's OpenJDK and uses free replacements for its
proprietary parts. GCJ is the GNU Compiler for Java, part of the GCC (GNU
Compiler Collection).  The Classpath project aims to develop a free and
portable implementation of the Java API (the classes in the 'java' package).

More information is available at http://icedtea.classpath.org/ ,
http://gcc.gnu.org/ and http://www.gnu.org/software/classpath/ .

Please provide us with more information about this point.


Please also attach the code to this tracker or forward it to me by mail.

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 GNU GPL you must
include a copyright notice and permission-to-copy statements at the beginning
of every  copyrightable file, usually any file more than 10 lines long.  This
is explained in http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-howto.html.  Our review would
help catch potential omissions such as these.



Note that Savannah supports projects of the Free Software movement, not
projects of the Open Source movement.

We are careful about ethical issues and insist on producing software that is
not dependent on proprietary software.

While Open Source as defined by its founders means something pretty close to
Free Software, it's frequently misunderstood.  For more information, please
see http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/free-software-for-freedom.html.



Moreover, you mention you use "open source" components and icons. We need to
know the licensing terms of each external components you need, in order to
check their compatibility with the license of your project, GNU GPL. In
particular, we need to origin of the icons, and what components you use from
the l2fprod repository.



If you are willing to make the changes mentioned above, please provide us
with an URL to an updated tarball of your project.  Upon review, we will
reconsider your project for inclusion in Savannah.

To help us better keep track of your registration, please use the tracker's
web interface following the link below. Do not reply directly, the
registration process is not driven by e-mail, and we will not receive such
replies.

Regards.
