Re: [Savannah-hackers] savannah.gnu.org: submission of monit - Utility that monitors daemons or

[Jaime E . Villate]

Hi,
You should replace the file GNUGPL by a complete, verbatiom copy of the GPL,
as found in http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl.txt (you have removed the last two
sections, which explain how to apply the license and some other issues, and
are part of the license).

Also, please replace the copying permission statement of your programs; it
should say:
 
    This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify
    it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by
    the Free Software Foundation; either version 2 of the License, or
    (at your option) any later version.
                     
    This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful,
    but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of
    MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.  See the
    GNU General Public License for more details.

    You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License
    along with this program; if not, write to the Free Software
    Foundation, Inc., 59 Temple Place, Suite 330, Boston, MA  02111-1307

The part that specifies the license version number is important, and so is the
address of the FSF in case of any legal need to check the original
license. Also notice that the GPL does not require third parties to distribute
your software with absolutely no charge.

Please apply those changes and when you are done register your project again.
(Notice that in the name of you project the "or" at the end should not be
there alone)

Cheers,
Jaime
