well, when I call conflict and ask for moderation is not for not being able to follow the GNU Savannah guidelines. I'm glad to follow them, I encourage people at my surroundings to do that saying that savannah is better than others because you are going to learn how licensing software properly. What I find difficult is following Ineiev's indications: (obviously my point of view) - use vague expresions as "many files has..." "some files has..." "Yes, the copyright notices are OK (where they are present)" ... - he sais "all are many" so when he sais many files, it can be ALL files... - he sais >>By the way, since you mentioned your earlier projects, I suggest that you >>should also check them and bring in compliance if needed. But When I talked about my first projects? it was asking for help and moderation, not in the task! He has afterwards opened a task, and place a message in the submission task saying: "This task depends on sr #109527." Well, the only connection between the submission task and my first project is me, so I feel obviously it has become personal. - he sais: >>Some files in your tarball still lack notices. If you are not willing or >>unable to follow Savannah policies, we'd better not register your package." when I'm trying to follow guidelines, every criptic Ineiev's message is answered the best I can with a source code fix. Why this kind of menace? So No, I don't feel he is doing a moderation work and I ask for help. > it seems it will never end and it's PROPAGATING to other project I > have https://savannah.nongnu.org/support/index.php?109527 > > The request is very simple, and it is applied for all projects on > Savannah.
