[Savannah-register-public] Fwd: [task #7856] Submission of captury

[Alexander Shulgin]

Hi Sylvain,

Here's my follow-up for this task:
--------------------------------------------------

I'm reviewing your project for inclusion into Savannah.  While doing
so I've discovered a few problems:

1. The FSF address has changed and now is '51 Franklin Street, Fifth
Floor, Boston, MA 02110-1301 USA'.  You can get the updated version
here: http://www.gnu.org/licenses/old-licenses/gpl-2.0.txt

2. Your source files are missing correct license notices.  Please see
the last section of GPL on how to apply it to released programs
properly.  More info can be found here:
http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-howto.html

3. The files captury/src/libGLcaptury/freetype.{h,cpp} are copyright
by Sven Olsen.  I could not find any indication of copying conditions
for the code provided in lessons on the site, so may be we should
contact the author for permission before distributing the code under
GPL.

4. Also, you use the GLUT library, however original GLUT is
incompatible with GPL.  The code happens to compile with freeglut, but
I don't know if it really works.  Please make sure your code works
with some free GLUT implementation.

If you are willing to make these changes please provide us with an
updated tarball of your project.

Cheers,
Alex
