Hi,

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

The Berkeley DB is released under a license that is compatible with
the GNU GPL. Hence, you can release your package under the GNU GPL.

Can you precise what is stdlibs?

Also, the precise copyright notation should not be
Copyright (C) 2004 by Simon MANLAY
but
Copyright (C) 2004  Simon MANLAY
(check http://www.gnu.org/prep/maintain/html_node/Copyright-Notices.html for 
details).


If you are willing to make the changes mentioned above, please provide
us with an URL to an updated tarball of your project.  Upon review, we
will reconsider your project for inclusion in Savannah.
