Please follow the advice of http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-howto.html. The GPL FAQ explain the reason behind these recommendations. For example, there is an entry explaining why the GPL requires including a copy of the GPL with every copy of the program: http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-faq.html#WhyMustIInclude Please register your project once more with the changes mentioned above. The way we handle pending projects makes it difficult to keep track of projects that have been answered but have not been approved yet, so we erase them and we ask you to register the project again every time some change has to be done to the registration, and users might have to register their projects several times. Thank you for your understanding. Some users find it useful to use the big re-registration URL provided in the acknowledgment e-mail you received after registration.
