Hi,
Sorry for replying late, but I have been disconnected
from internet (it happens sometimes in life).

I thought that I have seen it at:
http://www.fsf.org/licenses/license-list.html#GPLIncompatibleLicenses
However, now I see that it is about PHP3.0, maybe
it has changed now. Anyway, PHP is not in the list
of GNU GPL compatible licenses.

Surely I will host a copy of the CVS at Savannah.
However, I think that it will be like a mirror
copy of the CVS at SF (or maybe like a backup of it).
I will do the day-to-day development on SF, and once
in while (not very often) I will update the CVS at
Savannah with the latest changes. I have thought in
the past about how to keep two CVS repositories
sincronized, and finally I found it. It is not
very difficult.
Besides this, I think that phpWebApp can be
implemented in other languages as well, like Python,
Ruby, Perl, maybe Guile, etc. So, in case that I
start such a project (for example pyWebApp), I think
that I can host it entirely on Savannah.

Ok, thank you. I will write them.
