Hi,

So I close this submission.

See you at Savannah. :)

Cheers

Actually I don't think I will have time for this project in the near future.

That is especially the case because Samsung has announced an LCD display with USB input (http://www.heise.de/newsticker/meldung/85674).

For a school that may be a more interesting thin client solution than a Java-enabled X server as thin client. I will have to check how many USB monitors you can connect to a single server and, of course, there would have to be X11 support for the USB bus as a video interface.

You can cancel the project for now. Maybe I will submit it again in a few years ;-)

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.

Hi,

Your projects meets the Savannah requirements, except that we cannot review your source code yet.

We prefer to approve project with source code, so we can check it for legal issues (even non-functional code is OK). We will among others check if the source files contain appropriate copyright notice and permission-to-copy statements at the beginning of every copyrightable file. Our review helps catch potential legal issues early.

If we approve your project without source code, we will review the code in the near future (or better, at your request). If then the source code does not meet our requirements (for example, non-free dependencies), we will then discuss the issue and possibly remove the project from Savannah.

Do you need the Savannah services now, and if yes do you agree with the above conditions?

Regards.

My code base will consist of


I'm considering to use code from

License version 2.1 and GPL)

A Gnuzilla Gecko Widget could also become part of J11.

There is not yet any code that isn't part of the packages mentioned above. The main reason to start the project is to form a group to make the first design decisions, prior to writing any code.

Hi,

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

Please include a (perhaps temporary) URL pointing to the source code. Alternatively, you can forward the code to me by email.

We wish to review your source code, even if it is not functional, to catch potential legal issues early.

For example, to release your program properly under the GNU GPL you must include a copyright notice and permission-to-copy statements at the beginning of every  copyrightable file, usually any file more than 10 lines long.  This is explained in http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-howto.html.  Our review would help catch potential omissions such as these.

Note that sending code to our repositories is a release, since the code will then be publicly available through anonymous access.

Cheers

A new project has been registered at Savannah
This project account will remain inactive until a site admin approves or discards the registration.


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: J11
  • System Name:  j11
  • Type: non-GNU software & documentation
  • License: GNU Lesser General Public License





Description:

J11 will be an X11 server based on www.xfree86.org but with support for Java widgets, applets and whole application user interfaces in the X11 server. For that purpose the XFree86 server will be used without forking the code base. The J11 server will include a full Java VM and allow to install a pure Java window manager in the server. Initially supported widget libraries will probably include SWT and Swing. The project will use GCJ and Classpath. Implementation of Java WebStart in the J11 server is an option.



Other Software Required:

GCJ, GNU Classpath
