Re: [Savannah-hackers] submission of MetaDB - Database metadata retrieval - savannah.nongnu.org

[Sylvain Beucler]

Hi,

I'm evaluating the project you submitted for approval in
Savannah. Sorry for the delay.

"Linux" is just a kernel of a more complex system that we like to refer
to as GNU/Linux, to emphasize the ideals of the Free Software movement.

Would you mind changing references to Linux as an OS to GNU/Linux?

For more information, see http://www.gnu.org/gnu/linux-and-gnu.html.


I would like to review your tarball, but it is packed with the RAR
format, and my 'unrar' does not seem to understand it. Can you point
me to another tarball in a more free format such as Tar+Gz, Tar+Bz2 or
Zip?

Regards,
