??changed:
-* Write a half-page technical description of your project: its goal, its 
programming language and its dependencies (with !URLs).
* Write a short technical description of your project: its goal, its 
programming language and its dependencies (with !URLs).

??changed:
-* GNU GPL-compatible license: your license should be listed as compatible at 
http://www.gnu.org/licenses/license-list.html. You can also use the GNU Affero 
GPL, since it is effectively compatible with !GPLv3. For documentation, we are 
currently clarifying exactly what licenses we accept. Of course, we accept our 
GNU Free Documentation License (and compatibles), even though is not compatible 
with the GNU GPL.  Do not use a GNU license without the "or any later version" 
wording in your notices, as that creates future compatibility problems.

the LGPL, we can technically accept LGPL*-only since it can be converted to any 
version of the GPL, but we nevertheless strongly recommend against using 
LGPL*-only.)
