Hi,

I am waiting for an answer from you.

If within one week I still do not get a reply, I will remove your project.
You will still be able to register it again once you have the time to deal with the registration issues.

Are you still willing to host your project at Savannah?
If not, please tell us - we don't bite, and it will make us gain time.

Regards.

Hello.

I got your point. But why do you want to collect all translated work and host them together on Savannah?
Isn't it better to work together with the project documentation writers of the sperate projects?


Nevertheless it could be difficult for you to host all translations into Pashto here. The Ubuntu/Debian teams have got free and non-free documentations - but the non-free ones cannot be hosted on the Savannah server.
Simply we don't host any GNU FDL incompatible licenses on our server.
 
Furthermore if (for example) a manual page or a huge documentation (e.g. .texi file) was released of the Ubuntu/Debian guys under the terms of the GNU General Public License, it cannot be hosted here, too, because we want to host only GNU FDL (or compatible licenses) here.


Please try to clarify these points.
Regards,

Hi,

> Please provide us with a FREE version of your documentation (and your source code).

I haven't made any documentation or software yet, I am just starting to work on that.

> Following your link I got "To continue, you must log in to Launchpad."

I have account with launchpad, but I am not member of any translation team yet because of the slowness of the coordinator at the pashto translation team who is resposible for it.

>Furthermore "http://www.gnu.org translation team" is invalid - your project is a documentation project, right? The option you chose was to translate http://www.gnu.org only.

My project is not just documentation, it will do everything needed to make linux work with Pashto language. It includes documentation, translation of the linux interface and solutions for making Pashto work properly with linux. By the way I have no plan to translate www.gnu.org at the moment. I have just started to translate the interface of ubuntu linux into Pashto language.

Hi,
I'm evaluating the project you submitted for approval in Savannah.


Following your link I got "To continue, you must log in to Launchpad."
Please provide us with a FREE version of your documentation (and your source code).


Furthermore "http://www.gnu.org translation team" is invalid - your project is a documentation project, right? The option you chose was to translate www.gnu.org only.


Last, but not least, how do you plan to use our services?

Please provide us with more information.
Regards,
