Follow-up Comment #1:

Hello.

****
Please resubmit your project in English. English is the only language that
the whole
Savannah team understand and is needed for transparency and archival.
****

Nevertheless, some hints for you:
At first, Delphi is properitary software, so we cannot host your project
here, while you use it.


At second, even though your project is Free Software it can not be hosted
here.
We only host projects that can run on a free operating system (such as
GNU/Linux).

We have adopted this policy because now that completely free operating
systems exist,
we do not want to encourage users of those systems to start using proprietary
operating
systems so that they can use your program.

If you are willing to maintain a version for free operating systems,
which work as well as or better than other ports, you can then provide
versions for non-free systems as well.
The idea is that at no point should only-free users be at a disadvantage
compared to users
of proprietary software.

Your project should always work equally well in free systems as in any other
version you provide;
if you have some modules for non-free systems, you can delay their release
until you have released
the free operating system version.

If you accept this commitment then please register your project again and it
should be approved in Savannah.

Thank you for your understanding.




Regards,
the Savannah Administration Team,
