Hi,



(Please try to use the tracker to reply to this evaluation, using the URL at
the end of the notifications. I know this is not very clear, we're working on
it :))

For the license notice to be legally acceptable, you need t o add a copyright
notice, as described at
http://www.gnu.org/prep/maintain/html_node/Copyright-Notices.html

Can you please add copyright notices before any license notice?

This requires a little change in the notice.



Currently, it reads "[...]; either version 2 of this License.". As you can
see in the GPL howto, this part should be "either version 2 of the License,
or (at your option) any later version."



If you send another tarball with the changes above, it should be enough to
accept your project at Savannah.

Hi,



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



Your project requires proprietary software and cannot be hosted on Savannah
for this reason.



Indeed, gpc is released under this license:

   This software is free for non-commercial use. It may be copied,

   modified, and redistributed provided that this copyright notice

   is preserved on all copies. The intellectual property rights of

   the algorithms used reside with the University of Manchester

   Advanced Interfaces Group.



   You may not use this software, in whole or in part, in support

   of any commercial product without the express consent of the

   author.



   There is no warranty or other guarantee of fitness of this

   software for any purpose. It is provided solely "as is".

which is non-free.



Savannah is willing to provide resources and time to developers writing Free
Software that can be used without the need to ask permission from proprietary
software vendor.



Besides, the author uses the vague term "intellectual property" regarding the
algorithm, which makes me wonder whether his university registered a patent
for it.





I think the wisest choice is to contact the gpc author and ask him and his
university to re-release gpc as free software.



[EMAIL PROTECTED] can provide help for this.





If, someday, you get free of this proprietary dependency, do not hesitate to
resubmit your project.



Thank you for your understanding.

Hi,



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



Please include a (perhaps temporary) URL pointing to the source code.  The
description you gave when registering will not be read by the general public.
 If you are still concerned with privacy, however, you can forward the code to
me by email.



We wish to review your source code, even if it is not functional, to catch
potential legal issues early.



For example, to release your program properly under the GPL you must include
a copyright notice and permission-to-copy statements at the beginning of
every file of source code.  This is explained in
http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-howto.html.  Our review would help catch
potential omissions such as these.

Please register your project again with a detailed technical description that
specifies such requirements as programming languages and external libraries. 
It should be at least one-half a page.





You also need to determine whether your project can run on a Free Software
Java suite (see http://www.gnu.org/software/java/ for more information).



We recommend you to test your project using GCJ and GNU Classpath, and ensure
that your Java code runs on this Free Software Java suite.



GCJ is the GNU Compiler for Java, part of the GCC (GNU Compiler Collection). 
The Classpath project aims to develop a free and portable implementation of
the Java API (the classes in the 'java' package).



More information is available at http://gcc.gnu.org/ and
http://www.gnu.org/software/classpath/ .

Hi,



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



Savannah's mission is to host free software projects, and we want the public
to think of them as free software projects. A project name that says "open"
will tend to lead people to think of the project as "open source" instead of
"free software".



We would be glad if you accept to use "free" instead of "open" in your
project name.



We are careful about ethical issues and insist on producing software that is
not dependent on proprietary software.



While Open Source as defined by its founders means something pretty close to
Free Software, it's frequently misunderstood. For more information, please
see http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/free-software-for-freedom.html.





For this reason, you must determine whether your project can run on a Free
Software Java suite (see http://www.gnu.org/software/java/ for more
information).



We recommend you to test your project using GCJ and GNU Classpath, and ensure
that your Java code runs on this Free Software Java suite.



GCJ is the GNU Compiler for Java, part of the GCC (GNU Compiler Collection).
The Classpath project aims to develop a free and portable implementation of
the Java API (the classes in the 'java' package).



More information is available at http://gcc.gnu.org/ and
http://www.gnu.org/software/classpath/.



Please provide us with more information about this point.



Since you still are in design phase, we recommand to develop it using free
technologies from the start. You may be interested in reading "Free But
Shackled" http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/java-trap.html

Follow-up Comment #6, task #3733 (project administration):

Hi,



Can you explain me how you proceeded?



As far as I'm concerned, launching the JBoss package using the version of gij
shipped with FC3 resulted in an exception.



We would like that your project run in a completely free OS; the presence of
a package at jpackage.org does not necessarily mean that it will run fine
with a free version of Java. Likewise, despite the fact that all Apache
projects are released under a free software license, they most often require
people to use the proprietary JDK from Sun.



Btw, whether your Java projects needs to be natively compiled or
byte-compiled (as was done for Eclipse 2) is not important; all we need is
being able to run it without using proprietary software.





Also note that Savannah supports projects of the Free Software movement, not
projects of the Open Source movement.



We are careful about ethical issues and insist on producing software that is
not dependent on proprietary software.



While Open Source as defined by its founders means something pretty close to
Free Software, it's frequently misunderstood.  For more information, please
see http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/free-software-for-freedom.html.

Hello,



As I pointed last time, can you include a (temporary) URL pointing to the

however, you can forward the code to me by email ([EMAIL PROTECTED]).



We wish to review your source code, even if it is not functional, to catch
potential legal issues early.



For example, to release your program properly under the GPL you must include
a copyright notice and permission-to-copy statements at the beginning of
every file of source code. This is explained in
http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-howto.html. Our review would help catch
potential omissions such as these.



Moreover, I see that HostiliX is already hosted at Sarovar.org and BerliOS.
The goal of Savannah is not to provide a backup solution; can you tell us
what usage you intend to do of your Savannah project?

Hi,



We are concerned that projects at Savannah do not encourage the usage of
proprietary formats, such as MP3 and WMA. We just precised our hosting policy
at https://savannah.gnu.org/register/requirements.php (see especially "No
dependencies on non-free software", "No non-free formats software").



We would on the other hand be glad to host Limusina if it supports free audio
formats such as Ogg Vorbis or Flac.





Also, your files should carry an appropriate copyright and license notices.
Similar to:



Copyright (C) 2002  Your Name



This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it under
the same terms as Perl itself.



at the top of every file. If the file is binary, you can included these
notices in a README file.





If you are willing to make the changes mentioned above, please provide us
with an URL to an updated tarball of your project.  Upon review, we will
reconsider your project for inclusion in Savannah.

Hi,



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



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 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.



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.



Please send an updated version of your source code for us to review. You can
attach files to this tracker in the "Attached Files" section.





Also, note that "Linux" is just a kernel of a more complex system that we
like to refer to as GNU/Linux, to emphasize the ideals of the Free Software
movement.



For more information, see http://www.gnu.org/gnu/linux-and-gnu.html.





Last, can you tell me under what license you plan to release your report? We
recommand using the GNU Free Documentation License.





Regards.

Hi,



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



We need a detailed technical description that specifies such requirements as
programming languages and external libraries.  It should be at least one-half
a page. Please post it here, I have troubles reading your blog website,
especially since an ad is apparently masking most of the text at the top.





You must determine whether your project can run on a Free Software Java suite
(see http://www.gnu.org/software/java/ for more information).



We recommend you to test your project using GCJ and GNU Classpath, and ensure
that your Java code runs on this Free Software Java suite.



GCJ is the GNU Compiler for Java, part of the GCC (GNU Compiler Collection). 
The Classpath project aims to develop a free and portable implementation of
the Java API (the classes in the 'java' package).



More information is available at http://gcc.gnu.org/ and
http://www.gnu.org/software/classpath/ .



Please provide us with more information about this point.





Please include a (perhaps temporary) URL pointing to the source code.  The
description you gave when registering will not be read by the general public.
 If you are still concerned with privacy, however, you can forward the code to
me by email.



We wish to review your source code, even if it is not functional, to catch
potential legal issues early.



For example, to release your program properly under the GPL you must include
a copyright notice and permission-to-copy statements at the beginning of
every file of source code.  This is explained in
http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-howto.html.  Our review would help catch
potential omissions such as these.





Apparently there was a problem with your last comment. Maybe you posted it in
Chinese; please use English, which is the only language that the whole
Savannah team understand and is needed for transparency and archival.





Last, we do not use MS Office, which is proprietary software; if you would
like to send us documents, please use a free format.



Regards.

The notices look good.



As far as I see, libpcap is under an Expat-like non-copylefted license (which
compatible with the GNU GPL, so there is no problem).



For the report, we are just concerned that if it is uploaded at Savananh, it
is released under a GNU or GDFL-compatible license.



Regarding headers.h, I suggest you contact the authors of the tutorials and
ask them if you use their code in a GPL'd program. You can also recreate it
from scrach, or derive it from the Linux kernel headers you saw (the Linux
kernel is released under the GNU GPL).



Please contact us again via this tracker once you have dealt with this last
issue.

Hi,

Note that we supports projects of the Free Software movement, not projects of
the Open Source movement.

We are careful about ethical issues and insist on producing software that is
not dependent on proprietary software.

While Open Source as defined by its founders means something pretty close to
Free Software, it's frequently misunderstood.  For more information, please
see http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/free-software-for-freedom.html.

I see that there is a entry in
http://www.gnu.org/server/standards/README.translations.html for
Norvegian, although there is no maintainer specified. Did you contact
the GNU translation coordinator? ([EMAIL PROTECTED])

By the way, only projects that are official GNU packages can have 'gnu' in
their name. Would you mind if I rename the project system name to, for
example, wwwno?

We are organizing the translations pages at the moment. So, the project
webpages temporarily set your webpage to http://www.nongnu.org (although the
translations will still be posted at www.gnu.org) - I'll keep you informed.

Hi,

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

Apologizes for the delay, we were both understaffed and got lots of
submissions lately.

I have approved your project.  You will receive an automated e-mail
containing detailed information about the approval.


There are a few things to check before to import the repository at
Savannah..

The address of the FSF has changed, and is now:

  59 Temple Place, Suite 330 Boston, MA 02111-1307 USA

You should update your files.

Keep also in mind that the FSF will move again, after 10 years, next May:
http://www.fsf.org/news/fsf-moving.html


Also, there are a lot of, I think, generated files. Those do not need
copyright and license notices, but I would be glad if you could confirm me
that all files without these notices are generated ones.


In the copyright notices, I do not think it is necessary to include the month
along with the year, but that is not very important.


Last, "Linux" is just a kernel of a more complex system that we like to refer
to as GNU/Linux, to emphasize the ideals of the Free Software movement.

For example, I saw you used the phrase "Linux system" in your webpage; please
use "GNU/Linux" system instead.

Follow-up Comment #1:

Hi,

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

It looks like your program is meant to run under MS Windows only (uses
conio). Please tell me if I'm wrong.

We only host projects that can run on a free operating system (such as Debian
GNU/Linux).

We have adopted this policy because now that completely free operating
systems exist, we do not want to encourage users of those systems to start
using proprietary operating systems so that they can use your program.

If you are willing to maintain a version for free operating systems, which
work as well as or better than other ports, you can then provide versions for
non-free systems as well.  The idea is that at no point eshould only-free
users be at a disadvantage compared to users of proprietary software.

Your project should always work equally well in free systems as in any other
version you provide; if you have some modules for non-free systems, you can
delay their release until you have released the free operating system
version.

If you accept this commitment then please register your project again and it
should be approved in Savannah.


Also, the copyright notice should include dates at which you finished working
on a released version. Check
http://www.gnu.org/prep/maintain/html_node/Copyright-Notices.html .

Last, the "system name" is the name of the project in our system (for
example, what project name will be used for the CVS repository) - not the OS
name. Please give us a new system name.

Follow-up Comment #3, task #3777 (project administration):

Hi,

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

The copyright and license notices you included in the Perl module files are
fine. However, lots of files are lacking these notices. Also, it is best to
place the notices at the very top of the files - but it is ok if you keep
them at the bottom.

The documentation also lack proper license declaration. For documentation, we
recommand the GNU Free Documentation License, but any GNU GPL-compatible
license is fine. If the html/ files are generated from the latex/ ones, you
do not have to place notices in
those files.

If you are willing to make the changes mentioned above, please provide us
with an URL to an updated tarball of your project (or update the SF
repository). Upon review, we will reconsider your project for inclusion in
Savannah.

Note that this time I should reply within 24 hours.

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

(English is the only language that the whole Savannah team understand and
needed for transparency and archival. I will therefore reply in English,
although you can send me a private mail in French for precisions)


The first problem is that your project relies on proprietary technlogies,
Visual Basic and the .Net Framework.

It cannot be hosted on Savannah in its current state for this reason.

Savannah is willing to provide resources and time to developers writing Free
Software that can be used without the need to ask permission from proprietary
software vendor.


The second problem is portability.

First, we only host projects that can run on a free operating system (such as
GNU/Linux).

(Incidentally, "Linux" is just a kernel of a more complex system that we like
to refer to as GNU/Linux, to emphasize the ideals of the Free Software
movement. For more information, see
http://www.gnu.org/gnu/linux-and-gnu.html.)

We have adopted this policy because now that completely free operating
systems exist, we do not want to encourage users of those systems to start
using proprietary operating systems so that they can use your program.

If you are willing to maintain a version for free operating systems, which
work as well as or better than other ports, you can then provide versions for
non-free systems as well.  The idea is that at no point should only-free users
be at a disadvantage compared to users of proprietary software.

Your project should always work equally well in free systems as in any other
version you provide; if you have some modules for non-free systems, you can
delay their release until you have released the free operating system
version.

Moreover, the fact you use Visual Basic makes it nearly impossible to make a
port to GNU/Linux. Visual Basic is meant to be used only for MS Windows, no
matter how you code with it, and there is no free replacement for it that
could be ported to GNU/Linux (although there are .Net framework free
replacements, such as DotGNU and Mono, there is no ways to compile VB under
GNU/Linux). The only thing that could happen is rather a complete rewrite for
GNU/Linux, making it a double effort to maintain the application eventually.

>From my experience, I also can tell that Visual Basic is so much unportable
that usually you could not even take a VB4, 5 or 6 application and use it in
any other version of VB.

It is better, especially when starting a new development, to use free,
non-proprietary technologies from the start, even if you are not familiar
with them yet - it will save time after.

Free software development environments do exist.
"Glade" is a graphical environment to build applications that works with the
"Gtk+" graphical toolkit. Glade can only be used under GNU/Linux, but
applications created with it, such as Gaim (gaim.sf.net), run under both
GNU/Linux and MS Windows. Gtk+ is meant to be used with the C programming
languages, but can be used by other more higher level languages such as
Python.

wxWindows is another portable graphical toolkit, although I'm not sure it has
a GUI builder.

I am not an expert on GUI builders, so maybe you should ask on forums to get
more advices on free software portable GUI builders.


Last, there are also some problems with your license.

The most important issue in your license is that it doesn't allow commercial
use. Check http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/words-to-avoid.html#Commercial and
http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/selling.html for more information.

It is almost always better to use an existing license, than to write your
own. By using your own license, you take the risk to run into legal issues,
whereas exsisting where written or validated by lawyers.

Your license is also in French. For a project distributed on the Internet, it
makes sense to write a license in English. If think you do need a license
written in French, you may want to have a look at the CeCILL license, which
was written to be conform to the French laws, and is compatible with the GNU
GPL.

Requiring to provide a binary along with any distribution of the source code
can be inconvenient as well.

There is also some details about sections that cannot be modified in the
documentation. In this case, we recommand to give the documentation a special
license, such as the GNU Free Documentation License (GFDL). This is not a free
software license, is incompatible with the GNU GPL, but

Hi,

We can host your project, if your primary goal is to create a version that 
works without proprierary dependency or OS, and if Savannah can help you in 
this task.

If you agree to this commitment, please say so.

We could then, for example, review your project again in a month and check the 
progress done.

Please note, by the way, that Savannah is not really French. We provide French 
translations of most of the user interface, and I am French, but the service is 
located at Boston and involves people from among others USA and Chile.

[Savannah-register-public] Savannah GPL'd submissions using SWT and Xalan

[Sylvain Beucler]

Hello,

I am reviewing a project submission at Savannah.
https://savannah.gnu.org/task/index.php?func=detailitem&item_id=3823

This Java project is released under the GNU GPL, but uses the SWT library 
(which is licensed under the Eclipse Public License AFAICS) and also uses the 
Xalan library (which is released under the Apache 2 license).

I think all those licenses are mutually exclusive.

What would you recommand to do in this case?

I added the project submitter in carbon copy if you need any precision.

Thanks,

Follow-up Comment #2:

This is fine.

I thus approve your project. You will receive a mail confirmation shortly.

When you start getting some code ready, feel free to contact us for us to
review it and check for legal issues.

[By the way, the license can be referred as 'GNU GPL', because the General
Public License is part of the GNU project. 'GNU/' is mainly used in
'GNU/Linux' to describe a combination of GNU and Linux (a kernel that is not
part of the GNU project).]

Note that I approved your project as a non-GNU project. In order to evaluate
it as a GNU package, we need more information - a clear description of the
design and plans for the whole package, preferably part of the code, and of
course it needs to run under the GNU system.
When those things are ready, write to [EMAIL PROTECTED] to ask for an
evaluation of your project for inclusion in GNU.

Last, you may want to post a job at http://savannah.gnu.org/people/
describing what help you are looking for.

Basically yes; we would like you to put a copyright and a license
notice in any non-trivial files, eg. any files larger than 10 lines.

You added the license of the GFDL itself, not a GFDL notice.

Please have a look at:
http://www.gnu.org/licenses/fdl.html#SEC4
and also:
http://www.gnu.org/licenses/fdl-howto.html
for a smaller notice to use in files included in the main one.

A copy of the GFDL is also available in LaTeX format and ready for inclusion in 
your documentation at http://www.gnu.org/licenses/fdl.tex

Follow-up Comment #1:

Licensing under the "GNU GPL v2 only" is problematic.

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.

Please also note that section 9 of the GNU GPL states:
"Such new versions will be similar in spirit to the present version, but may
differ in detail to address new problems or concerns."

Incidentally, the FSF haven't released any drafts yet. There is the AGPL
(http://www.affero.org/oagpl.html), which is more a prototype than a draft.

Hi,

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

You must determine whether your project can run on a Free Software Java suite
(see http://www.gnu.org/software/java/ for more information).

We recommend you to test your project using GCJ and GNU Classpath, and ensure
that your Java code runs on this Free Software Java suite.

GCJ is the GNU Compiler for Java, part of the GCC (GNU Compiler Collection). 
The Classpath project aims to develop a free and portable implementation of
the Java API (the classes in the 'java' package).

More information is available at http://gcc.gnu.org/ and
http://www.gnu.org/software/classpath/ .

Please provide us with more information about this point.


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 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.

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.


Also, do you know what license fiji is released under?


Last, please tell us the project (not your user account :)) full and system
name you would like for this project.

Hi,

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

Savannah's mission is to host free software projects, and we want the public
to think of them as free software projects.  A project name that says "open"
will tend to lead people to think of the project as "open source" instead of
"free software".

We would be glad if you accept to use "free" instead of "open" in your
project name.

Please add proper copyright notices in your files. For more information,
check http://www.gnu.org/prep/maintain/html_node/Copyright-Notices.html

In addition, 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".

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.

If you are willing to make the changes mentioned above, please provide us
with an URL to an updated tarball of your project.  Upon review, we will
reconsider your project for inclusion in Savannah.

Last, I didn't get your point on using GNU/Linux instead of Linux when
refering to the operating system.

Regards.

Ok. You will see these details with the GNU Evaluation team. They
should contact you in the near future (the process is longer than the
Savannah approval, though).

Just send it to me and I'll import it.

Follow-up Comment #3, task #3827 (project administration):

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 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.

You need to include a copyright notice, as described in the GPL HOWTO. For

(You didn't include the license btw, but a license notice - and that's
perfectly what we wanted you to do)

Hi,



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



Note that "Linux" is just a kernel of a more complex system that we like to
refer to as GNU/Linux, to emphasize the ideals of the Free Software
movement.



Would you mind changing references to Linux as an OS to GNU/Linux?



For more information, see http://www.gnu.org/gnu/linux-and-gnu.html.





I don't think there is any problem with hosting your project at Savannah
(we'd review it in about one month to check the uploaded code). However, the
Gnome project uses separated hosting facilities, and it might be more
convenient to host your project there (provided they accept it). Did you
consider this possibility?

Please resubmit your project in English. English is the only language that

Please also include a (perhaps temporary) URL pointing to the source code. 
The description you gave when registering will not be read by the general
public.  If you are still concerned with privacy, however, you can forward
the code to me by email.



We wish to review your source code, even if it is not functional, to catch
potential legal issues early.



For example, to release your program properly under the GPL you must include
a copyright notice and permission-to-copy statements at the beginning of
every file of source code.  This is explained in
http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-howto.html.  Our review would help catch

Hi,



I am reviewing your project for approval at Savannah.



If I am right you did not started the project yet (planning phase) - hence
have no source code to show us. Is this correct?



Also, do you already know what programming language you intend to use? We are
concerned that it has a free implementation available.

Hi,



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





Please resubmit your project in English. English is the only language that
the whole Savannah team understand and is needed for transparency and
archival.





The 'system name' is the group name that will be used by the system (eg the
name of the CVS repository) - not the name of the operating system. Please
provide another project internal name for your project.



Please also include a (perhaps temporary) URL pointing to the source code. 
The description you gave when registering will not be read by the general
public.  If you are still concerned with privacy, however, you can forward
the code to me by email.



We wish to review your source code, even if it is not functional, to catch
potential legal issues early.



For example, to release your program properly under the GPL you must include
a copyright notice and permission-to-copy statements at the beginning of
every file of source code.  This is explained in
http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-howto.html.  Our review would help catch
potential omissions such as these.





Last, you will have to determine whether your project can run on a Free
Software Java suite (see http://www.gnu.org/software/java/ for more
information).



We recommend you to test your project using GCJ and GNU Classpath, and ensure
that your Java code runs on this Free Software Java suite.



GCJ is the GNU Compiler for Java, part of the GCC (GNU Compiler Collection). 
The Classpath project aims to develop a free and portable implementation of
the Java API (the classes in the 'java' package).



More information is available at http://gcc.gnu.org/ and
http://www.gnu.org/software/classpath/ .



Please provide us with more information about this point.





The re-registration URL found in our acknowledgment of your earlier
registration will direct you to the proper location where you can re-register
your project.
