Follow-up Comment #1:

Hi,

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

At first and in order to release your project properly and unambiguously
under the GNU GPL, please place copyright notices and permission-to-copy
statements at the beginning of every copyrightable file, usually any file
more than 10 lines long (e.g. : <w3server/source/client/src> and
<w3server/source/server/src>).

In addition, please update the copy of the plain text version of the GPL,
available from http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl.txt, into the file named
"COPYING".

For more information, see http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-howto.html.

If some of your files cannot carry such notices (e.g. binary files), then you
can add a README file in the same directory containing the copyright and
license notices. Check
http://www.gnu.org/prep/maintain/html_node/Copyright-Notices.html for further
information.

The GPL FAQ explains why these procedures must be followed.  To learn why a
copy of the GPL must be included with every copy of the code, for example,
see http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-faq.html#WhyMustIInclude.

At second, please remove GIF image files from your project and replace them
with an other format (such as PNG or JPEG).

Because of the patents (Unisys and IBM) covering the LZW compression
algorithm which are used when making GIF files, it's impossible to have free
software to generate proper GIFs.  These patents also apply to the compress
program.

For more information, see http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/gif.html.

And at last, there is no problem to host your project since you make the
changes listed above. :)

Cheers.
