Follow-up Comment #7, task #10372 (project administration):
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA256 May 18th 2010 in GNU Savannah task #10372: "Submission of DataExplorer". Hi again and Sorry for the long delay. I noticed some issues of my concern with the zipball you submited: *I just noticed DataExplorer is written in Java. We need you determine whether your project can run on a Free Software Java suite and Operating System (see https://savannah.gnu.org/maintenance/JavaIssues and http://www.gnu.org/software/java/ for more information). We recommend you to test your project using IcedTea, or GCJ + GNU Classpath over GNU/Linux, and ensure that DateExplorer runs on this Free enviroment. IceTea is based on Sun's OpenJDK and uses free replacements for its proprietary parts. 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://icedtea.classpath.org/, http://gcc.gnu.org/ and http://www.gnu.org/software/classpath/. Please provide us with more information about this point. *Several files lack the Copyright & licensing information. In order to release this or another software properly and unambiguously under the GNU GPL, please place copyright notices and permission-to-copy statements at the beginning of every copyrightable file, usually any file more than 10 lines long. 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. If some of your files cannot carry such notices (e.g. binary files), then you can add a README file in the same directory containing the copyright and license notices. Check http://www.gnu.org/prep/maintain/html_node/Copyright-Notices.html for further information. 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. *There are some screenshots of a software called "AkkuMaster" running on the propietary MS Windows under /dataexplorer-2.20/AkkuMaster/src/help/src, and there is no licensing information at all about AkkuMaster. Please add the licensing information to this project just as with the rest of the files if it's know, if not, you must either ask the copyright holder to release AkkuMaster under a free software license or delete it from (New versions of) the zipball and make sure DateExplorer don't depends on it. Let us know if you need more information about the need changes.
