Can you tell me exactly what package you are using? Maybe it is non
free.

The project will be non-gnu.

You can ask the GNU Evaluation team if you want to your project to be
dubbed 'GNU'. It is a another process, separate from Savannah hosting.

By using the GNU GPL, nobody can legally turn Sabian into a
proprietary software.

You can, in addition, give the copyright to Free Software Foundation;
that way, the FSF will be able to protect Sabian in court.


In order to release your project properly and unambiguously under the
GPL, please place copyright notices and permission-to-copy statements at
the beginning of every file of source code.

In addition, if you haven't already, please include a
copy of the plain text version of the GPL, available from
http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl.txt, into a file named "COPYING".

For more information, see http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-howto.html.

The GPL FAQ explains why these procedures must be followed.  To learn
why a copy of the GPL must be included with every copy of the code, for
example, see http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-faq.html#WhyMustIInclude.


Also check whether you really can use all the files in Sabian. For
example, I can see in cal2.js, "All Rights Reserved", which means that
file is not free software.

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,
