Follow-up Comment #1:

Hello Nicolas,

Thank you for submitting a new project to host on GNU Savannah.
And a special thanks for providing such detailed and well organized
information.

First,
You've mentioned interest in registering the project as "Official GNU
Software".
Official GNU Software goes through a different evaluation process, as
explained here:
   http://www.gnu.org/help/evaluation.html
You can certainly host a Free-Software project on GNU Savannah without it
being an official GNU package.

Second,
Regarding the non-free requirements (rar, Afio, getcgivar, e2fsck, etc.) - I
will have to consult more experienced people regarding this issue.
If these are optional components and your project can work without them - the
better.

Third,
Regarding copyright and license information in the project's files,
to adhere to the GNU Savannah Hosting requirements ( see:
  https://savannah.gnu.org/register/requirements.php
  http://savannah.gnu.org/maintenance/HowToGetYourProjectApprovedQuickly/ )

The project's files are very well copyrighted and licensed,
I have just few minor requests:

The following files are longer than 20 lines, and it would be good to add
copyright and license statements to them:
    src/bin/Makefile.am
    src/client/utConf.sh
    src/client/utShellQuery.sh
    src/common/utRegister.sh
    src/common/utSsh.sh
    src/memory/utConfTree.sh
    src/misc/utLocks.sh
    src/misc/utSetuid.sh
    src/server/utThreads.sh
    src/utMediatex.sh
    useCases/tests.sh
    
The following files are small-ish (between 10 and 20 lines). It would be
beneficial to add a copyright statement,
and perhaps just a mention of the license (if you prefer not to add the entire
license).
    scripts/cron_daily.sh
    scripts/cron_hourly.sh
    src/client/utCatalogHtml.sh
    src/client/utCommonHtml.sh
    src/client/utExtractHtml.sh
    src/client/utMisc.sh
    src/client/utMotd.sh
    src/client/utSupp.sh
    src/common/utCgi.sh
    src/common/utConnect.sh
    src/common/utExtractScore.sh
    src/common/utOpenClose.sh
    src/common/utUpgrade.sh
    src/memory/utArchive.sh
    src/memory/utArdsm.sh
    src/memory/utCacheTree.sh
    src/memory/utCatalogTree.sh
    src/memory/utCvsPrint.sh
    src/memory/utExtractTree.sh
    src/memory/utRecordTree.sh
    src/memory/utServerTree.sh
    src/memory/utStrdsm.sh
    src/memory/utSupportTree.sh
    src/misc/env.sh
    src/misc/utAddress.sh
    src/misc/utChecksums.sh
    src/misc/utCommand.sh
    src/misc/utCypher.sh
    src/misc/utGetcgivars.sh
    src/misc/utHtml.sh
    src/misc/utKeys.sh
    src/misc/utLog.sh
    src/misc/utPerm.sh
    src/misc/utShm.sh
    src/misc/utSignals.sh
    src/misc/utTcp.sh
    src/parser/utCatalogFile.sh
    src/parser/utConfFile.sh
    src/parser/utExtractFile.sh
    src/parser/utRecordList.sh
    src/parser/utServerFile.sh
    src/parser/utSupportFile.sh
    src/server/utCache.sh
    src/server/utCgiSrv.sh
    src/server/utDeliver.sh
    src/server/utExtract.sh
    src/server/utHave.sh
    src/server/utNotify.sh
    

The following files use the term "Linux", when perhaps they refer to
"GNU/Linux" operating system and not the "Linux" Kernel.
Please consider re-wording them (if applicable):
    src/memory/extractTree.h
    src/misc/alloc.c
    src/misc/md5sum.c
    src/parser/recordList.c
    src/parser/supportFile.c
    src/client/extractHtml.h
    doc/extract.texi
    
Image files and other binary files:
The project contains several PNG and FIG images, and also some other binary
files.
I assume you've created them all.
If these don't have copyright and license information in the actual file,
please
consider mentioning them in the README file (detailling who is the
auther/copyright holder and their license).



Please, let us know when these are amended and we could continue with the
evaluation.


Regards,
 - Assaf
