Follow-up Comment #2, task #10874 (project administration):

Hi Alex,

I do not understand your remark about the license headers completely. Is it
only the missing license about the Ogg file? The main and only source file
(src/linternamagica.user.js) has a license header. Slightly different than the
one in the GPL howto. It is copied form the example at the end of The
JavaScript Trap <http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/javascript-trap.html>. Is there
a problem with that license header? If I understood you correctly, you want me
to add license headers to all the text files that are meant to be
documentation. The Ogg file itself is generated by eSpeak, which is
distributed under GPL version 3 or later license. AFAIK the generated Ogg file
should be licensed under the GPL, because of the sound samples used. If that
is not the case, the license depends on me. I will add that information.

I can make an updated tarball, but currently I am working on a new version,
that at worst will be release at the end of the month. I am aiming at
splitting the JavaScript code, the CSS and the images into separate files.
This will change the source code structure a lot. The final userscript file
will have to be build with GNU Core Utilities - cp, grep, cut, base64 etc. and
probably GNU make. I was trying to avoid the building part because of the
nature and the size of Linterna Mágica. My recent discovery of the base64
tool in GNU Core Utilities changed my mind. On top of that it is already a
nightmare to maintain.

That said, isn't it better to postpone the review process after all these
changes?
