Hi,

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

The following files lack the copyright statements and permission to
copy headers:

  src/VARS.c
  src/cmdline.c
  src/mod_human.h
  src/sins.h
  src/snake_compat.h
  src/snake_limits.h
  src/ui_picts.h

Also, is the file src/compat.c Public Domain?  If so, the file should
state that.  If not, please add the appropriate copyright statement
and license information.

Once you have fixed the above, and it checks out OK, I can approve
your project.
