Hi Jose,

Can you check http://www.gnu.org/help/evaluation.html to submit recutils to GNU officially?

After that we'll be able to approve it directly.

(The alternative is that we first review and accept it as non-GNU, and then migrate it to GNU when it's officially dubbed)

Registration Administration


While this item will be useful to track the registration process, approving or discarding the registration must be done using the specific Group Administration page, accessible only to site administrators, effectively logged as site administrators (superuser):



Registration Details


  • Name: GNU recutils
  • System Name:  recutils
  • Type: Official GNU software
  • License: GNU General Public License v3 or later





Description:

GNU recutils is the definition and the implementation of
a simple format for data storage in text files.  The
data is structured in records of the form:

   Name: Jose E. Marchesi
   Email: -email is unavailable-
   Address:
   + Einbahnstrasse 100
   + Ausfarth am Main
   + Germany

It supports some degree of data integrity with the usage of record descriptors, as well as the ability of referring
other records.

The package comprises:

- A texinfo manual describing the Rec format.
- A C library (librec) providing a rich set of functions
  to access rec files.
- A set of C utilities (recinf, recset, recins, recdel,
  recset and recfix) that can be used in shell scripts
  and in the command line to quickly operate on rec files.
- An emacs mode (rec-mode).

The current status of the package is:

- The library is implemented.
- The utilities are implemented.
- The manual needs some more work.
- The emacs mode needs more work.

The package was first "published" in the recent
GNU Hackers Meeting.  The plan is to make the
first delivery shortly after it gets approved.



Other Software Required:

gnulib - http://www.gnu.org/software/gnulib



Other Comments:

The git repo is available at:

   git clone fp.gnu.org:/home/j/jemarch/git/recutils.git

I recommend to use it instead of the tarball specified
below.
