Hi,

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

"Linux" is just a kernel of a more complex system
that we like to refer to as GNU/Linux, to emphasize
the ideals of the Free Software movement.


Would you mind changing references to Linux as an OS
to GNU/Linux?

As written in the registration page, we do not host complete GNU/Linux
distributions. 

We can only host the softwares/scripts you may write in order to build
your distro.


Please register your project if you think that the service we can
offer to you is enough and accept its limitations.

Some users find it useful to use the big re-registration URL provided in
the acknowledgment e-mail you received after registration.

Regards,
