Hi,

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

Please reply with a CC to address@hidden if
you have any questions about your registration.

I downloadeded qp-tools.tar, and I did only see:

tools/
tools/python2-2.2-2.i386.rpm
tools/python2-tkinter-2.2-2.i386.rpm
tools/wxBase-2.3.2-1.i386.rpm
tools/wxGTK-2.3.2-1.i386.rpm
tools/wxPython-2.3.2.1-1-Py22.i386.rpm
tools/mknbi-1.2-0.noarch.rpm
tools/etherboot-images/
tools/etherboot-images/eb-5.0.2-mc1-3c905c-tpo.lzdsk
tools/etherboot-images/eb-5.0.2-mc1-3c905c-tpo.lzrom
tools/etherboot-images/eb-5.0.2-mc1-eepro100.lzdsk
tools/etherboot-images/eb-5.0.2-mc1-eepro100.lzrom

tools/etherboot-images/eb-5.0.2-mc1-rtl8139.lzrom
tools/etherboot-images/NOTES.txt

I do not know how to handle rpm files, so please put a link to the 
source code on line.  Also on the url you gave me I only found a couple 
of tar balles (containing mostly rpms) but the most of the files where 
rpm's.

Some of them are of gcc, I know gcc so I won't bother checking it 
because it is a GNU package.  Some of the other names I do not know. 
Also they are very big.

Please tell me what to download and put only the source code online.  I 
am nothing with precompiled binairies.

Also know that in order to release your project under the GPL you
should write copyright notices and copying permission
statements at the beginning of every source-code file, and
include a copy of the plain text version of the GPL
(http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl.txt copy it, for
instance, into a file named COPYING).

Please follow the advice of
http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-howto.html


The GPL FAQ can also help you understand the reason behind
thoses 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 make sure you do this before submitting your project again.

Could you resubmit your project once it's done?
You can resubmit your project with ease by copying
the big re-registration URL provided in the mail
you received  at submission

Regards,

Rudy
