Follow-up Comment #1:
Hi,
I'm evaluating the project you submitted for approval in Savannah.
Note that Savannah supports projects of the Free Software movement, not
projects of the Open Source movement.
We are careful about ethical issues and insist on producing software that is
not dependent on proprietary software.
While Open Source as defined by its founders means something pretty close to
Free Software, it's frequently
misunderstood.
For more information, please see
http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/free-software-for-freedom.html.
Then please include a (perhaps temporary) URL pointing to the source code.
The description you gave when registering will not be read by the general
public.
If you are still concerned with privacy, however, you can forward the code to
me by email.
We wish to review your source code, even if it is not functional, to catch
potential legal issues early.
For example, to release your program properly under the GPL you must include
a copyright notice and
permission-to-copy statements at the beginning of every file of source code.
This is explained in
http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-howto.html. Our review would help catch
potential omissions such as these.
Regards,
