Hi,

Please remove GIF image files from your project and
replace them with an other format (such as PNG or JPEG).

Because of the patents (Unisys and IBM) covering the LZW
compression algorithm which are used when making GIF files,
it's impossible to have free software to generate proper
GIFs. They also apply to the compress program.

For more information read http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/gif.html

Here is the list of GIF files I've found in your package:
./maybe/Chapter Two Hello, World of Assembly Language.files/navtoc.gif
./maybe/Chapter Two Hello, World of Assembly Language.files/navprev.gif
./maybe/Chapter Two Hello, World of Assembly Language.files/navnext.gif
./maybe/Chapter Two Hello, World of Assembly Language.files/navidx.gif
./maybe/Chapter Two Hello, World of Assembly Language.files/wwplogo.gif
./maybe/Chapter Two Hello, World of Assembly Language.files/counter.gif

Apart from that, you should add a note into your README file to
specify that HLA, the High Level Assembly Language source code
your project is depending on is released in the public domain.

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.

Regards,

Xavier Nicolovici
