Thank you Karl and all other Savannah people! :) So, it seems now I'm compliant... I'm happy... and my project is free!

Hi Marco - it's ok to just remove it from the current hg.  Don't worry about the past history, it's not uncommon for there to be various "compliance" problems in the past that get corrected in the present.

That is, I expect you'd rather keep the full history around, and if so, that is ok.  On the other hand, if you don't really care, then starting fresh is certainly the cleanest approach.

Thanks for all your efforts.

Hi again,
  I've just removed the STIC.png file according to your indication.

Is it enough to remove it from the current Hg revision or shall I have to remove it from all the repository history?

Also, it could be that older Hg revisions were not Savannah compliant (I'm working on this project since so many years and Hg only is about 3 years older). How do I have to behave? Should I remove everything and keep only the latest current revision and start from this one?

Okay, no problem. I'll remove it... but tomorrow, because I'm going to bed now. :)

Thank you ver much for the support and suggestions. See you tomorrow for the removal.

Hi - the manual is fine, but your mentioning STIC.png seems potentially problematic to me (sorry to have to continue this):

> Star Trek Italian Club, used with authorization.


With free software or art, "authorization" should not be necessary.  If STIC.png isn't released under a free license
(the same FDL|CC-BY-SA would be simplest since that's used for the rest), it shouldn't be hosted on Savannah.

I can understand how you might not want a club logo to be modifiable and redistributable (after all, FSF logos aren't either), but then it simply should not be on Savannah.

Thanks,
Karl

That approach is alright. You can now upload without any problems.

Best regards.

Thank you very much Aljosha. Till I'm finding a nice way to add the licenses inside the image files, I'm going to add README file as you suggested. The idea is something like that (I'm also translating it).
  Do you think it's enough?

Hi,

sorry for the delay. I wasn't too sure about the Copyzero X license, but since you also license your work under GNU FDL there are no problems approving your project.

Please add copyright and license headers to the image files in the Immagini directory. If this is too cumbersome, you can also state license and copyright in a README file.

You should receive an automated email about the approval.

Welcome to Savannah!

No news on my project? Except for the name, now the description it's in English language, as required.
