Follow-up Comment #2, task #9772 (project administration):

You never answered my question if this project will support Linux-libre. 

You said in the e-mail "I don't mind changing references in my sources." On
savannah we do require you to refer to speak about it as GNU/Linux. There are
other places on nongnu.org where you are able promote your project such as
your project page and your homepage should you choose to host it on
nongnu.org.

I seemed to have missed the 'third party software'. 
Does this refer to software that is non-free? 
Does these scripts automatically download or install any non-free software?
Which licenses are being spoken of here?

Our requirements state:

"To be hosted on Savannah, your project must be free software, and it must be
kept independent of any non-free software. The package must not refer the user
to any non-free software; in particular, it must not automatically download or
install any non-free software.

The program should deliver its full functionality and convenience on a
completely free platform based on a free operating system, such as GNU/Linux,
working entirely with other free software. Otherwise it would be an inducement
to install non-free operating systems or other non-free software.

It is ok for the program to run on non-free platforms or non-free operating
systems, and to work with well-known non-free applications, in addition to
working with free software, provided it gives the free software at least as
good support as it gives to other alternatives. In other words, at no time, in
no way, should your program put free software users at a disadvantage compared
to those willing to use proprietary software."
