I added: "including all files in this distribution" to the existing sentence "libavl is licensed under the GNU General Public License (GPL), which should be included in this directory in file COPYING."  I am not sure how much more specific you want  me to be.

Hi Ben,
 
I'm evaluating the project you submitted for approval in Savannah. While doing so I have noticed a few problems which are described below.

First of all I would like to let you know that we are sorry for the huge delay you were facing.

Secondly, the address of the FSF has changed, and is now:

  51 Franklin Street, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA  02110-1301  USA

Please update your license notices.

Please update the copy of the license (usually, the 'COPYING' file) in your package as well.

Updated versions of the GPL, LGPL and GFDL can also be found at:
http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl.txt
http://www.gnu.org/licenses/lgpl.txt
http://www.gnu.org/licenses/fdl.txt

You can find some background and a possible migration script at https://savannah.gnu.org/forum/forum.php?forum_id=3766


Additionally, you added the license notices, but did not add appropriate copyright notices.

Please check http://www.gnu.org/prep/maintain/html_node/Copyright-Notices.html for more information, and update your files.

To be precise, years should not be abbreviated as in "1998-2002", but rather written in a way listing every year, ie. "1998,1999,2000,2001,2002".


Also, some scripts are missing both copyright and license notices. Please add those to the scripts as well.

I was also unable to find copyright and licensing information for the image files in your distribution. Please add appropriate information in the README file, for example.


If you are willing to make the changes mentioned above, please provide us with an URL to an updated tarball of your project.  Upon review, we will reconsider your project for inclusion in Savannah.

To help us better keep track of your registration, please use the tracker's web interface following the link below. Do not reply directly, the registration process is not driven by e-mail, and we will not receive such replies.

Regards,

Stephan

Registration Details


  • Name: GNU libavl
  • System Name:  avl
  • Type: Official GNU software
  • License: GNU Lesser General Public License (The current source tree indicates GPL; however after discussion with RMS, libavl will be moving primarily to LGPL, with test programs staying as GPL, and documentation probably moving to GFDL, although for a literate program the distinction between documentation and code is fuzzier.)





Description:

GNU libavl is a library in ANSI/ISO C for the
manipulation of binary trees and balanced binary trees.  libavl is
written using a literate programming system called TexiWEB.  By way of
TexiWEB, libavl is as much a textbook on binary trees and balanced
binary trees as it is a collection of code.

GNU libavl supports the following types of trees:

    Plain binary trees:

  • Binary search trees
  • AVL trees
  • Red-black trees


    Threaded binary trees:

  • Threaded binary search trees
  • Threaded AVL trees
  • Threaded red-black trees


    Right-threaded binary trees:

  • Right-threaded binary search trees
  • Right-threaded AVL trees
  • Right-threaded red-black trees


    Binary trees with parent pointers:

  • Binary search trees with parent pointers
  • AVL trees with parent pointers
  • Red-black trees with parent pointers




Other Software Required:

ANSI C compiler and standard C library.
