== REGISTRATION DETAILS ==

Full Name:
----------
  *GNU gzip*

System Group Name:
-----------------
  *gzip*

Type:
-----
  Official GNU software

License:
-------- 
  GNU General Public License V2 or later

Description:
------------
  Paul Eggert is now the maintainer of the long-moribund gzip, and I am doing
what I can to facilitate it.  We'd like to set up a savannah project as usual
for it.  Any problems?

The last (ancient) official release of the software is at
ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/gzip, as if you didn't know :).  Of course we will fix
licensing niglets, etc., of which I'm sure there are some.  gzip predates the
extensive checking we do nowadays by a good many years.

Other Comments:
---------------
  gzip is an official GNU package, needless to say.
