Congratulations and welcome :-) > > Regards, > -------------------------------- I had a careful look and there are 2 things to fix in this submission. First, you should note to the user that his copy of the GPL, in COPYING, refers to the old FSF address and need to be fixed. Also, the documentation needs to be released under the GFDL instead of the GNU GPL for 2 reasons: - we do not accept GPL-only documentation at Savannah, because we want documentation to be compatible with the GFDL. - the documentation includes part of the GNU Coding Standards manual (http://www.gnu.org/prep/standards/standards.html) which is released under the GFDL, and cannot be included in GPL'd documentation. Moreover, this part of the documentation does not carry the original copyright notice, which is a violation of the GNU Coding Standards license (we have the impression that the author wrote it, instead of Richard Stallman / FSF). Please send me updated/fixed reviews :) Cheers, -- Sylvain
