Follow-up Comment #6, task #4733 (project administration): Hi, I'm evaluating the project you submitted for approval in Savannah.
At first, "Linux" is a bad system name, please choose a better name for your project and tell us then. At second, "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. At third, You must determine whether your project can run on a Free Software Java suite (see http://www.gnu.org/software/java/ for more information). We recommend you to test your project using GCJ and GNU Classpath, and ensure that your Java code runs on this Free Software Java suite. GCJ is the GNU Compiler for Java, part of the GCC (GNU Compiler Collection). The Classpath project aims to develop a free and portable implementation of the Java API (the classes in the 'java' package). More information is available at http://gcc.gnu.org/ and http://www.gnu.org/software/classpath/ . Please provide us with more information about this point. At fourth, please include a (perhaps temporary) URL pointing to the source code. The description you gave when registering will not be read by the general public. If you are still concerned with privacy, however, you can forward the code to me by email. We wish to review your source code, even if it is not functional, to catch potential legal issues early. For example, to release your program properly under the GPL you must include a copyright notice and permission-to-copy statements at the beginning of every file of source code. This is explained in http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-howto.html. Our review would help catch potential omissions such as these.
