Yes. Before each project is approved, we review the submitted files and ensure they adhere to the savannah hosting requirements, one of which is proper license notice and copyright information. If need be, we ask the submitters to amend their files, and re-upload them for approval. After a project is accepted, we rely on their acceptance to follow the hosting requirements. (This is just the same as with official GNU packages.) The savannah hosting requirements are here: http://savannah.gnu.org/register/requirements.php with additional advice here: http://savannah.gnu.org/maintenance/HowToGetYourProjectApprovedQuickly/ A typical example of such review is: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/savannah-register-public/2016-04/msg00009.html regards, - assaf
