Hi, I'm evaluating the project you submitted for approval in Savannah.
[EMAIL PROTECTED] said: > A package was submitted to savannah.nongnu.org > This mail was sent to [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > Szilveszter Farkas <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> described the package as follows: > License: gpl > Other License: > Package: nanoFTPd > System name: nanoftpd > Type: non-GNU > > Description: > The project, called nanoFTPd, is aimed to develop a fully functional FTP server in > PHP language. > > There are already an amount of features included in the latest version, such as: > - user authentication against a database/flat file > - mysql and postgresql support > - passive mode > - dynamic ip support > - basic ftp commands > - logging > - resuming downloads > - connection limitations (overall/per ip) > > And we plan to add some other features, like ratio management, group-based > permission management, etc. > > The homepage of nanoFTPd can be found at: http://nanoftpd.sourceforge.net/ To release your project under the GPL, you should put copyright notices and copying permission statements at the beginning of every source-code file, and include a copy of the plain text version of the GPL (http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl.txt). Put it in a file named COPYING. Please follow the advice of http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-howto.html. The GPL FAQ explain the reason behind these recommendations. For example, there is an entry explaining why the GPL requires including a copy of the GPL with every copy of the program: http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-faq.html#WhyMustIInclude Also , licensing under the "GNU GPL v2 only" is problematic. Would you please agree to license under the "GNU GPL v2 or later"? The reason for this is that when we publish GPL v3, it will be important for all GPL-covered programs to advance to GPL v3. If you don't put this in the files now, the only way to port your program to GPL v3 would be to ask each and every copyright holder, and that may be very difficult. We can explain the issue in more detail if you wish. If you have concerns about "GNU GPL v2 or later", We'd be happy to address them too. Please register your project once more with the changes mentioned above. The way we handle pending projects makes it difficult to keep track of projects that have been answered but have not been approved yet, so we erase them and we ask you to register the project again every time some change has to be done to the registration, and users might have to register their projects several times. Thank you for your understanding. Some users find it useful to use the big re-registration URL provided in the acknowledgment e-mail you received after registration.
