Yes, this point it's mandatory, you have added a Copyright and Notices
License at the begging of every source file with more than ten lines
long, consider to read the GPL Howto:
http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-howto.html
I have approved your project. You will receive an automated e-mail
containing detailed information about the approval.
Your project was approved as without source code so we will review
your CVS in a month(more or less) looking for licensing problems, we
will notified you about the result of our revision.
