Here's the email I'm going to send for this project.

Hi,

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

I do not see the COPYING files in either the disk image, or the stage two tarball. I am unable to mount the initrd disk image, as my computer doesn't understand how to open Minix images (which file identified initrd as). Please send the files that are on it so I can check it. Furthermore, the source code for the linux kernel in the root folder is missing. The GPL requires that all source code be available, even for a bootstrap kernel. Finally. in oslist.lst, there is no copyright notices.

Just as a side note, GNU/Linux refers to a OS, Linux just refers to a kernel (you listed GNU/Linux as a dependency).

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,
Michael
