Hi,

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

Since your project does not seems to be part of the
GNU project yet, we cannot accept that project name
for it. Of course there are lots of non-GNU projects
with names such as gnuplot and gnuboy, but they are
not hosted in Savannah.

In the projects we host we want to keep the distinction
 between GNU and non-GNU projects, to avoid confusion.

If your project is accepted into the GNU project, you
 can change its name later on.

I suggest you resubmit your project as a non-gnu project and don't use
gnu in it's name.

As soon as you have some code to show you can ask address@hidden to 
evaluatie your project so it can be included in the GNU project.

Rudy
