Hi,
I'm evaluating the project you submitted for approval in Savannah.

Savannah's mission is to host free software projects, and
we want the public to think of them as free software projects. A
project name that says "open" will tend to lead people to think of
the project as "open source" instead of "free software".
We
would be glad if you accept to use "free" instead of "open" in
your project name.
> Description: This project aims at building an experimental,
> proof-of-concept
>
> implementation for a minimal suite of IP routing daemons. This
>
> is a completely new project; there is no existing code or documentation.
>
> We plan to borrow good ideas from other similar
>
> free software projects like Quagga and Xorp. We
>
> understand those projects have serious limitations
>
> we want to address by proposing a new design/implementation.
>
> Our first goal is to define a general design
>
> from which we can derive loosely coupled stand-alone
>
> modules. Such design is a work-in-progress. We'd like
>
> to expose it in Savannah so we can collect criticism and
>
> work cooperatively on it.
>
> The second goal is to use Java as a rapid prototyping
>
> tool to quickly build the main modules so we can have a
>
> semi-production software which we are able to use
>
> to evaluate the main concepts. There are minimal
>
> source code sketches on this idea.
>
> Once the 2nd phase is complete, if we're still confident about
>
> the design, we intend to replace the modules with
>
> production-quality components. It's anticipated it may
>
> be needed to rewrite some modules in other languages,
>
> if any requirements (such as performance) demand so.
>
> It worths noting that the project is going to rely heavily on:
>
> 1) existing free software libraries and tools;
>
> 2) open standards (like XML RPC, etc).
>
> Underlaying objectives are to contribute with the development
>
> of free software and the routing research community.

> Other Software Required:
> Java VM: Kaffe/GCJ

> Java Compiler: Jikes/GCJ
>
> Java Library: Classpath/GCJ
>
> Java Build Tool: Apache Ant
>
> Java XML-RPC: Apache XML-RPC
>
> Other Free Software Java Tools (such as Java Readline)

Ok.
Please register your project once more with the changes
mentioned above.
We cannot track projects that have been answered but not approved, so
we must ask you to register the project whenever you change the
registration. Make sure to apply all changes so you need to reregister
only once.
The re-registration URL found in our acknowledgement of your earlier
registration will direct you to the proper location.
Regards,
