Hi,
I'm evaluating the project you submitted for approval in Savannah.
Could remove gif images files from your project?
Because of the patents (Unisys and IBM) covering the LZW
compression algorithm which is used in making GIF files,
it's impossible to have free software to generate proper
GIFs. They also apply to the compress program
For more informations, read
http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/gif.html
Also, in order to release your project under the GPL you
should write copyright notices and copying permission
statements at the beginning of every source-code file.
Please follow the advice of
http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-howto.html
The GPL FAQ can also help you understand the reason behind
thoses recommendations. For example, there is an entry explaining
why the GPL requires including a copy of the GPL with
every copy of the program:
http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-faq.html#WhyMustIInclude
Could you resubmit your project once it's done?
You can resubmit your project with ease by copying
the big re-registration URL provided in the mail
you received at submission
Regards,
