Re: [Savannah-hackers] savannah.gnu.org: submission of Smurgaborf

[Renato Golin]

man, you're right, we don't... can you add our project and I send the
code with the header below in all our source files after that? I'm doing
the changes right now and I can upload the files in a couple minutes...

tnx!
Renato
