Follow-up Comment #32, task #14793 (project administration):

A boilerplate is a boilerplate: it is to be applied rather than just copied,
and applying means carefully reading it and replacing certain texts to fit
your situation.

For info on how to apply GNU licenses to your package, see the instructions in
the licenses themselves, then, the GNU project maintains a GPL HowTo
 and a chapter on Legal Matters
 in Information
for Maintainers of GNU Software.

Follow-up Comment #31, task #14793 (project administration):

What worries me is that I am left with code that has an incorrect or
incomplete license. From your comments it is not clear what is wrong. You just
state that I do not comprehend Savannah policies, which is vague.

Are you aware of a forum or site I can get help in bringing the license into
compliance? Apparently, FSF boiler plate text is not enough.

Thanks.

I understand that the job isn't easy, however, it isn't sufficient just to
follow my suggestions, you should be willing to follow Savannah policies, and
you didn't want to comprehend them.

I request that this be reopened. I have been following your suggestions. It is
difficult because this is a fork of another project so current licensing must
be retained.

>From your comments, I replaced FooBar with FLTK and you said it was wrong. I
then asked what should it be and know you want to close the project.

I hope you reconsider. Thanks for your consideration.

Follow-up Comment #28:

All packages hosted on Savannah should follow its requirements, and one of
those requirements is having valid copyright and license notices.  If the
maintainers of the package don't care to understand what it means (and you
evidently don't), the package is in no way going to follow that policy.

Under such circumstances I have few options but to cancel your submission. 
I'm sure you'll understand my decision.

1. First, the license notices refer to the wrong license: "You should have

." 

I used the text your put in comment #13. What is it supposed to say? Is it
missing the 'Library' word? Should it say:

GNU Library General Public License

2. Then, the src/ directory contains some XPM files, and they lack any notices
(there is no README file in src/). Please check other files as well, I didn't
look into them all.

Follow-up Comment #15, task #14793 (project administration):

It was brought up on the FLTK mailing lists that porsche.xpm may also infringe
on registered trademark. So, I removed the file. It has been replaced with an
FLTK xpm someone put up. I updated the readme file accordingly.

To summarize:
  image files in src have been removed
  porsche.xpm has been replaced (readme updated)
  modified FSF address to URL and dropped redundant part

I removed the xbm files from the src directory. I am not sure if they were
needed. Tracking down the origins and copyright would take sometime. For
porsche.xpm in the test directory, I updated the readme. 

I went ahead and modified FSF address to the URL and dropped the redundant
part.

While at it: FSF's address changed twice since then; current versions of the
licenses recommend using an URL:


You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License
along with Foobar.  If not, see .


(BTW this would make the subsequent link to http://www.fltk.org/COPYING.php
redundant.)

Could you list each file explicitly? Is there a reasonably easy way to find
out their origin and check whether Bill Spitzak is actually a copyright
holder?

Follow-up Comment #11, task #14793 (project administration):

Thank you.

I have attached another tarball, which can be found here:

 https://savannah.gnu.org/submissions_uploads/fltkal4.tar

Do you folks have a tool that scans files? I have gone through the 300+ files
manually expanding or adding the license header text. I think the only thing
that does not have a license is image files in src:

allfiles.xbm  d1_mask.xbm  d1.xbm  ew_mask.xbm  ew.xbm  new.xbm  ns_mask.xbm 
ns.xbm  up.xbm

I can add a readme file in that directory to handle that case.

I'm also not sure if the license notice in your files is acceptable: it only

What would definitely do is putting the canonical LGPL notice with the
exceptions in every file.

Follow-up Comment #2, task #14793 (project administration):

The license is a modified LPGL V2:

http://www.fltk.org/COPYING.php

In the root directory of the tarball, there is also a COPYING file.

There are two files missing a license header. They are both in the doc
directory named build.md and filemap.md. I am most likely going to change them
to dox files and put a license header in them. Let me know if I need to do
that prior to approval. All the rest of the files should have an appropriate
header describing the copyright and license.

I will be sure to use the term GNU/Linux. Thanks.

Let me know what you need me to do in order to move forward.

Hello, Mark!

Unfortunately, your submission has a few issues to fix.

First, what license are you actually going to use for your package?

Then, please note that Savannah is a forge of the GNU Project.  This means
that packages hosted here shouldn't refer to GNU/Linux as "Linux".

Also, please make sure that all copyrightable files in your tarball have valid
copyright and license notices.
