I will add the appropriate license files to the repositories ASAP. ___ Reply to this item at: http://savannah.gnu.org/task/?10961 ___ Messaggio inviato con/da Savannah http://savannah.gnu.org/

(Lengthy discussion is ensuing, etc., etc.) So I suspect presence within the FSF / sv hosting is a suggestion from rms. Mario can inform us more :). Hi guys! Sorry to have generated panic :) The proposal to be on savannah was mine not from RMS, but it came after RMS has shown interest in our project, I came to the conclusion that having a project page on savannah would be a nice thing to show our relationship with the FSF, which is something we would really like to have. Karl is right in that RMS would like to have us in the GNU package (and so do I), but, as sad as it is, we both think this will never happen... and this mainly because of the patents threat and because our project will use a hybrid mess of licenses (GPLv3/v2 plus Classpath exception, Apache License etc...), this is something in the long run we may be able to fix and the rule is that no files with two different licenses share code, but there is no much we can do about this because, well, is based on Android anyway... I want to point out that although I consider us to be a GNU Classpath spin off, we are so just because we are using the same infrastructure and most of us are the same people :) and where applicable we will use some code, but indeed we are a separate project. The code repository will be hosted on icedtea.classpath.org together with the mailing list (we already have this), but I was searching (and this was my reference to the web space, sorry for not being clear) a place for the wiki, to host releases, and to keep track of the contributors. I would also like to have (but I understand very well if this is something you don't like) a place where to host a copy of the android code we are developing. We apply patches to the main code but we don't want to have a proper fork, so it's very handy to have always a very stable code nobody else can change and that gets regular updates and predictable (although we are using stable versions to base our work on, so we don't expect too many changes). Let me know if you want more information! From my side I would be honoured to be hosted on savannah even if we will not use much of the resources (but we could at some point indeed).

There is no code attached to the submission. While we occasionally approve projects without source code, it is better to have something (a preliminary version is enough). Could you provide a tarball to review so we can continue with the review process? Thanks! We are setting up the repositories and mailing list on IcedTea.classpath.org, we would like to register the project to have also a presence within the FSF, but we will probably not use savannah for anything other than the project page (and web space if this is available). I'm working on the first code drop (currently, just build machinery) and the external tools we need to develop.

Have Dalvik completely separated from the usual Android infrastructure so that it runs as any other *unix program in the Linux environment (and non Linux, I personally want it to work on OSX and QNX). 2. Avoid Dalvik and Harmony as much as possible and put the Android stack on top of the OpenJDK class library, and run the whole thing in Hotspot Tarball URL: http://www.jroller.com/neugens/entry/introducing_icedrobot ___ Reply to this item at: http://savannah.nongnu.org/task/?10924 ___ Messaggio inviato con/da Savannah http://savannah.nongnu.org/
