[Savannah-register-public] [task #10481] Submission of GeoCite
Update of task #10481 (project administration): Status:None = In Progress Assigned to:None = alexfernandez ___ Follow-up Comment #1: Hi Georg, Sorry for the delay. I am reviewing your submission on behalf of Savannah. To answer your question first: There are no coding requirements on Savannah. Your code is fine. Also, you comply with most hosting requirements; just add a reference to the license to the USER MANUAL.TXT file and it should be fine. I have a few suggestions to improve manageability: * You might want to put everything inside a single compressed file, and have everything uncompressed there. Right now there is a bit of a mess with tarballs inside tarballs; source code is separate from the distributable file. * Names with spaces are a bit of a mess to type on Linux; it's better to use slashes like USER-MANUAL.TXT. Also consider lowercase for everything but README.TXT and LICENSE.TXT; and include the README.TXT for high level explanations about the package. * The top folder should include the license number, something like: GeoCite-0.9. You have that inside GeoCite package; just do GeoCite-0.9 the top folder. If you want I may approve the submission and you can deal with these issues in the Savannah version control system. Let me know, OK? Thanks, Alex. ___ Reply to this item at: http://savannah.gnu.org/task/?10481 ___ Message sent via/by Savannah http://savannah.gnu.org/

Follow-up Comment #2, task #10481 (project administration): Sorry, I meant GNU/Linux instead of just Linux; the full name helps outsiders know about the GNU project role in creating the full Unix clone, instead of giving all credit to the Linux kernel. ___ Reply to this item at: http://savannah.gnu.org/task/?10481 ___ Message sent via/by Savannah http://savannah.gnu.org/

[Savannah-register-public] [task #10496] Submission of Quagga Routing Software
Update of task #10496 (project administration): Status:None = In Progress Assigned to:None = alexfernandez ___ Follow-up Comment #1: Hi Paul, Sorry for the delay; there is a bit of a backlog after the summer Holidays. I am reviewing your submission on behalf of Savannah, and there are a few issues with it: * You speak about Linux, but we prefer that you use GNU/Linux: it gives credit to the GNU project besides the Linux kernel. Read the Hosting requirements https://savannah.gnu.org/register/requirements.php for more details. * Some documentation files (NEWS, README, Changelog...) lack the required GPL header. * There are a few PNG files in there, but it's not clear where they come from. The best solution is usually to state in the README or some similar file the license for each one. Please upload a new tarball with these issues solved, and let us know when it's ready for a new review, OK? Finally, you say that Quagga is a fork of GNU Zebra; while forks are sometimes necessary (and GNU Zebra seems to have stopped development in 2005), it might be better to help the original package move along. Have you contacted the authors of GNU Zebra, and/or the GNU project, to see if they would like some contributors?

[Savannah-register-public] [task #10497] Submission of SimRoof
Update of task #10497 (project administration): Status:None = In Progress Assigned to:None = alexfernandez ___ Follow-up Comment #1: Hi Aubrey, Sorry for the delay, there is a bit of backlog after the summer Holidays. I am reviewing your submission on behalf of Savannah, but since there is no code to review there is little we can do to move forward. I suggest that you close this submission and resubmit when you are ready. As to the status of binary data, you might want to ask your question on the savannah-hackers-public mailing list for an authoritative answer. From my limited understanding as a non-lawyer, the legal status of raw data is that it cannot be copyrighted in the US. In the EU raw data (like phone databases) can be copyrighted by the organization collecting the data, so it would be enough to have a written statement from Dr Vacca to the effect that the data are placed in the public domain (a file distributed along with the tarball would be enough). The status of the program used to generate the data is not important, as it just follows a mathematical model which cannot be copyrighted. But again, please subscribe to savannah-hackers-public https://savannah.gnu.org/mail/?group=administration if you want to be sure.

Update of task #10563 (project administration): Status:None = In Progress Assigned to:None = marioxcc ___ Follow-up Comment #2: -BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA256 2010-09-05 in GNU savannah task #10563: Submission of Lout. Hi. I'm evaluating the project you submitted for approval in GNU Savannah. You can reach the rest Savannah hackers (Staff) in this list: http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/savannah-hackers-public. I noticed some issues with the tarball you submited: Several files lack its copyright licensing information. In order to release your project properly and unambiguously under the GNU GPL, please place copyright notices and permission-to-copy statements at the beginning of every copyrightable file, usually any file more than 10 lines long. In addition, if you haven't already, please include a copy of the plain text version of the GPL, available from http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl.txt, into a file named COPYING. For more information, see http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-howto.html. If some of your files cannot carry such notices (e.g. binary files), then you can add a README file in the same directory containing the copyright and license notices. Check http://www.gnu.org/prep/maintain/html_node/Copyright-Notices.html for further information. 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, see http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-faq.html#WhyMustIInclude. ~~ At your option we can continue the registration process in the (D)VCS repository of your choise. This means I would approve the project just now provided you agree to fix any remaining or further issue (If any) as soon as possible. I will close this task when I can check all is ok but please bear in mind you must follow the hosting requirements as long as you do use GNU Savannah. Regards.

[Savannah-register-public] [task #10505] Submission of gln
Update of task #10505 (project administration): Status:None = In Progress Assigned to:None = alexfernandez ___ Follow-up Comment #1: Hi Florent, Please excuse the long delay. I am evaluating your submission on behalf of Savannah, and there are a few issues that need addressing before we can move along with it: * A few files do not have the license header, such as HOWTO.txt and README.txt. * Also, the file texture.png does not have a license attached; it would be best if all binary files and the appropriate license are listed in the README. * As a convenience, you might consider placing all source code inside a folder (called e.g. src/); the sooner your project is organized the better. * Also, allow me to suggest the GPL license for the project; it helps ensure that everyone using the code shares their improvements. But this is of course up to you. Could you upload a corrected tarball and let us know? Thanks!

[Savannah-register-public] [task #10527] Submission of Artificial Intelligence Working
Update of task #10527 (project administration): Status:None = In Progress Assigned to:None = alexfernandez ___ Follow-up Comment #1: Hi Isaac, Sorry for the delay, I am evaluating your submission on behalf of Savannah. There are a few issues that should be solved before we can move along: * All of your code is in the root level of the tar file. It is better to create a directory with your project name and version (example: ai-working-0.1) and compress that directory instead. * The README file just says that it is not official. It would be best to include a description of the project and the license used in the project (and a license header). * There is not much code yet; we can create the project on Savannah and you start hacking on that, but you need to make sure that all of it follows the hosting requirements https://savannah.gnu.org/register/requirements.php. * Also, the tarball should be compressed to make the best use of Savannah infrastructure. Please upload a new tarball and let us know. Thanks! Alex. ___ Reply to this item at: http://savannah.gnu.org/task/?10527 ___ Message sent via/by Savannah http://savannah.gnu.org/
