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

[Loic Dachary]

        Hi,

        The cannonical name of your software will be gnu-crypto. Is this
really what you want ? It means, for instance, that its home page will
be http://www.gnu.org/software/gnu-crypto/. 

        Also, I can't find you listed as a GNU maintainer or find "crypto"
to be a registered GNU project. Would you please provide us more information
about this ? 

        Thanks for your patience,
