Follow-up Comment #1:

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

First in order to release your project properly and unambiguously under the
GPL, please place copyright notices and permission-to-copy statements at the
beginning of every file of source code.

In addition, if you haven't already, please include a copy of the plain text
version of the GPL,
available from http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl.txt, into a file named
"COPYING".

For more information, see ttp://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-howto.html.

The GPL FAQ explains why these procedures must be followed.
To learn why a copy of the GPL must be included with every copy of the code,
for example,
see http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-faq.html#WhyMustIInclude.

And for the binary files (GIF->PNG/JPG files), you had to write in your README
file a short notice whom the files belongs to. Because they had to be free
available.


Second please remove GIF image files from your project and replace them with
an other format (such as PNG or JPEG).

Because of the patents (Unisys and IBM) covering the LZW compression algorithm
which are used when making GIF files,
it's impossible to have free software to generate proper GIFs.  These patents
also apply to the compress program.

For more information, see http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/gif.html.


If you are willing to make the changes mentioned above,
please provide us with an URL to an updated tarball of your project.
Upon review, we will reconsider your project for inclusion in Savannah.

Regards.
