I remember we did include GPL notes at the beginning of the source files, as recommended on the GPL itself. But maybe what's missing is the COPYING file; ok, I'll do that then.
Thanks, bye Rafael

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

Rafael Bohrer ?vila <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> described the package as follows:
License: gpl
Other License: Package: OmniBib
System name: omnibib
Type: non-GNU
Description: OmniBib is a peer-to-peer framework for sharing bibliographic databases. The idea is that each individual maintains his own database (e.g. a BibTeX file) and makes it available to the OmniBib network by means of a dedicated server. This server is accessible by OmniBib users, who can search for and fetch the references they need. The server also has the capability of contacting other servers if the needed references are not found locally. Client-side software retrieves a number of references from a given server and formats it as needed; the typical usage is to fetch bibliographic entries from the OmniBib network and hand it to a local BibTeX program, in the form of a .bib file, in order to process the citations of a LaTeX document. The goal of this project is to provide a working OmniBib environment as described above. We intend to implement the server functionality using Perl and at least a basic client program to be used in place of BibTeX. I'm re-registering the project as requested in your email from Aug 22. A alpha-alpha-alpha, barely-functional version of OmniBib can be downloaded from http://www.inf.ufrgs.br/~avila/omnibib-0.0.3.tar.bz2. Please note that this is not supposed to become an official downloading site for OmniBib, it's just a temporary place so that you get access to it, nor intend we to ever publically release this particular version of the software.
In order to release your project properly and unambiguously under the GPL, please place copyright notices and permission-to-copy
statements at the beginning of every file of source code.
In addition, if you haven't already, please copy a copy of the plain text version of the GPL, available from (http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl.txt), into a file named "COPYING".
Additional instructions are available from http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-howto.html.
The GPL FAQ explains why these procedures must be followed. To learn why a copy of the GPL must be included with every copy of the code, for example, go to http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-faq.html#WhyMustIInclude
Please register your project once more with the changes
mentioned above.
We cannot track projects that have been answered but not approved, so we must ask you to register the project whenever you change the registration. Make sure to apply all changes so you need to reregister only once.
The re-registration URL found in our acknowledgement of your earlier registration will direct you to the proper location.
Regards,
Rudy
