Looks like sourceforge doesn't like the new address.

I'm not sure if the cc of this will reach the list atm, I've switched my list
email to this one but the last one I sent is still waiting or
my message filter didn't work. I'm going to resend this to Michael and Chris
via gmail as well, my only reliable address atm.
I don't know if you received my apology for being in a hurry and misreading our
legal departments bug but it seems that the only problem is
your translations don't have "or later". This could be as a result of my
running :
make ts
make ts-noobsolete
make locale
on a release, I haven't checked this yet. None the less I can easily patch
this, if it's still there without the make ts.
This is the bug :
./src/gui/dialogs/AboutDialog.cpp: label2->setText(tr("<p>Copyright

The dialog is wrong as it's missing the "or later", but I can't see a licensing
problem - just user documentation is wrong.
You've also one header with the wrong Free Software Foundation Address which I
assume weakens the license.
It is :
rosegarden-11.11.42/src/sound/dssi-compatibility/alsa/seq_event.h: *No
copyright* LGPL (v2.1 or later) (with incorrect FSF address)
With no licensing header :

Our end of build check doesn't complain about the files without headers, just
the ones with wrong addresses. In fact you sources are very
clean as far as license headers are concerned.
Once again sorry for the fuss I caused, I've been offline apart from very
expensive mobile phone internet access for about three months and
am just getting up to speed.
