I think it'd be best if we resubmitted once we have code; we'll do without a mailing list for now and have decided on an alternative way of doing bug tracking.

Thanks for your consideration. Snap.py will remain Free Software, regardless of where it is hosted.

Thanks,
fdr

Hi,

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

Before approval, we prefer to see your source code, so we can check it for legal issues (even non-functional code is OK). Among other checks, we will check that the source files contain appropriate copyright notices and permission-to-copy statements at the beginning of every copyrightable file. Our review helps catch potential legal issues early.

If you need Savannah right now, please explain to us why; otherwise, please resubmit the project when you have source code.

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.

I did not realize that nongnu savannah required human review; we were looking for a place to put our mailing list and get git and project hosting (since savannah is one of the few that supports git).

If not-yet-fleshed-out projects are not fit for Savannah, please summarily dismiss this request. We will use repo.or.cz and Google Groups or such, although we'd much prefer to base our communications on Free Software.

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: Snap.py
  • System Name:  snap-py
  • Type: non-GNU software & documentation
  • License: GNU General Public License v2 or later





Description:

Snap.py is a desktop application to assist in the fast organization of digital photographs via tagging.

It emphasizes (re)use of existing standards for picture metadata storage (EXIF, IPTC, XMP, et al) so that tags can be carried with and backed up with the photograph.

Snap.py is written in Python. It aims to be cross platform, but GNU/Linux is the primary platform used by the principal developers and as such will probably receive the most attention.



Other Software Required:

PyGTK+ (LGPL, http://www.pygtk.org/)
Pycairo (LGPL, http://cairographics.org/pycairo/)




Other Comments:

Snap.py is conceptually descended from a class project at UC Berkeley, simply known as Snap. It is hosted at snap-photo.sourceforge.net, but has been dead for some time.
