Hi,

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

I'm a bit confused. It is related to the kernel or the operating
system?

"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?

Please register your project again including a URL
(could be temporary) where we can find the source code.
The description you give during project registration will be
read by Savannah administrators and not by the general public;
if you are concerned with privacy, you can
send me a copy of the code by e-mail,

We would like to look at your source code, even if it is still
not functional, to help you fix potential legal issues which
would be harder to correct after the project gets approved.
For example, to release your program properly under the GPL,
you should write copyright notices and copying permission statements
at the beginning of every source code file,
as explained in http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-howto.html.


Please register your project once more with the changes mentioned
above.  The way we handle pending projects makes it difficult to keep
track of projects that have been answered but have not been approved
yet, so we erase them and we ask you to register the project again every
time some change has to be done to the registration, and users might
have to register their projects several times.  Thank you for your
understanding.

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

Regards,
