Please note that for your program to be approved as GNU, it should
be accepted by the GNU evaluation team. When you fix the issues cited
above, I will set the type of this project to non-GNU and forward it to
the GNU evaluation team for review. Until your project is approved by
the GNU evaluation team, it will reside in savannah.nongnu.org. In order
to evaluate your project as a GNU package,  the GNU evaluation team
needs a clear description of the design and plans for
the whole package, and preferably part of the code. If you wish to
elaborate on the project description, you should send it to
address@hidden after your project is accepted as non-GNU.
