[Savannah-register-public] [task #9791] Submission of ForgePlucker

[Nicodemo Alvaro]

Follow-up Comment #3, task #9791 (project administration):

You could define it differently your project differently. Why leave it to the
suggestion that proprietary applications could not become free software with
this application?

The term seems more ambiguous, since SourceForge and Berlios are neither
under any free software license nor available for the public. Looking at what
Savannah seems to call itself on the front page would suffice for everything,
I think. A software forge.

So why not revise to this:

"ForgePlucker intends to produce simple tools to break projects out of the
data jails that too many software forge sites have become."

This site cares about the 4 freedoms as a whole; so if you are to set
software apart from the non-free you must write what best describes that. So
you could switch "software forge" with "free software hosting" to be
acceptable.

For the notice, Savannah wishes to play safe than sorry. Copyright is a
complicated issue. If you wish to use that as your licensing notice, I was
told we can ask address@hidden . That will obviously take some more time
though.
