You are right.  I forgot the button didn't always appear.

I changed your license to GPLv3+. It may take an hour or so to show up; let us know if problems.

And thanks!

Hi Karl,

I guess we don't need any special mentioning of the FDL for the documentation  (Some files in the source tree are public domain anyway).

Bit maybe I'm looking for the wrong place, but at least on the page https://savannah.nongnu.org/project/admin/editgroupinfo.php?group=arc I'm told that

  "License changes are moderated by the site administrators. Please contact them to change your project license."

??

Thanks,
Gregor

Hi Gregor -- glad to hear about your decision.  isn't there a checkbox on the admin pages about "upgrade license to gplv3"?
i can look further if it's not apparent to you.

as for the doc, as far i know savannah has no provision for specifying separate doc/source licenses. perhaps mention it in the long description?  most packages i know of don't do anything special; the licenses are specified in the source tree anyway ...

thanks,
karl

Hi,

I'm the maintainer of the Arc buildtool project (http://savannah.nongnu.org/projects/arc/). We've decided to upgrade the license of the code to GPL 3 and FDL (for the documentation) respectively.  Could you please update the corresponding information on the project page?

Thanks,
Gregor
