2010-10-14 in GNU Savannah task #10665: "Submission of Trans-ALM".

Hello.

> Can one of you please tell me how to cancel my project submission?

Post your deletion request in this item, which tracks the registration
process of the project in question.

> I don't want it published on savannah any more!

Thanks for telling us, we will delete the submission after you confirm
it in the tracker.

Please bear in mind it's expensive for us to review the sent projects.
We aim to encourage and check good licensing practices and hence we
review the project and check for possible issues.  If everythink is ok
and the project meets our requirements and advice it gets approved, else
we ask the maintainer to fix these.  That's a tedious and time-demanding
task.  We are volunteers and have limited time to divide between several
pending projects [1].

When you submit and later request cancellation of a project means you
made one volunteer and the savannah team, as a whole, to waste part of
his time and effort on it, instead of using these in a project who is
really going to appreciate or at least, consider these suggestions.

Our requirements and advices are not arbitrary.  These are for the sake
of the free software users in overall.  For example, we ask you to put
valid Copyright notices and the GPL header on every Copyrightable file
(Or in the README in case of files which can't contain it inside) so the
users can know for sure these files are free software, and they are free
to use, modify, study and re-distribute them.  A properly licensed file
can be swiftly copied between projects, for instance.  In contrast if
some legal information is missing we (Someone) can't assume it.

I ask you to help us with the pending projects if that's possible.
