Follow-up Comment #4, task #10633 (project administration):

Hi Hans-Peter,

I am reviewing your submission on behalf of Savannah. There are a few issues
with the tarball:
* You are including the text of the LGPLv3 and the GFDL, but also of the
GPLv3. This is a bit confusing and should be explained in the README (just as
you did in the project description here). Pointing to a source code header in
the README is a bit confusing; better to explain the license as profusely as
needed.
* Your code is mostly fine, with copyright headers very neatly applied.
However, text-only files such as the README, HACKING or the TODO should also
carry copyright information. (This does not apply to files which are
automatically generated, or purely functional.) We usually recommend adding
the license header at the bottom of the file.
* There are some binary files in doxygen/images/; as they cannot carry
copyright information on their own, we recommend giving this information
(copyright holder, author and license) in a README file.

Keep in mind that Savannah strives to provide Free software to the community.
We worry about licensing issues so users and other developers do not have to,
so we need to be sure that everything is legally sound, even if we have to be
more obnoxious than other hosting sites.

Could you upload a new version that solves these issues so that we can
continue with the review process? Thanks!
