Hi Gianluca Masone,

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

You named a dependence 'xerces-c' which it's licensed under Apache
Software License, Version 2.0, this it's a GPL-Incompatible license,
can you replace this dependence? Keep in mind that a project released
under the GNU GPL cannot have GPL-incompatible dependencies. This
independent from the Savannah hosting criteria.

There is any source code for the current version of 'xogastan', if
this is the case, can you provide us with an URL to download the
source code? or if you prefer, you can send it to my email(address@hidden). 

We wish to review your source code, even if it is not functional, to
catch potential legal issues early.

For example, to release your program properly under the GPL you must
include a copyright notice and permission-to-copy statements at
the beginning of every file of source code.  This is explained in
http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-howto.html.  Our review would help catch
potential omissions such as these.

Regards,
