Please, follow the "How to Get Your Project Approved Quickly" guide before providing us your project files.

http://sv.gnu.org/maintenance/HowToGetYourProjectApprovedQuickly .

Are you not familiar with the gnu tar program?

First make a directory containing all your files and directories of your project. Then tar it:

tar -czf project.tar.gz Project/

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

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.

Hello! I have my project in a medium to advanced stage and I have a local repository copy. I need to figure out how to "upload" the repository.

Description:

The projects is  a C Ray Tracer simulator. Plus some other items such as : Blender 3D Plugin and a GnuPlot performance report.

The purpose of this project was to measure the performance and the functional occurrence (how many times a particular function is called in the process) in order to understand the computational ongoing of the ray tracing algorithm.

The project so far uses float math computation in order to measure maximum performance in regular PC's. Now the efforts are focused on implementing the simulation with a fixed math representation in order to understand the performance or accuracy issues that pop ups when bailing out from the floating point realm.

The programming language used is C mainly, but there's also code in python and perhaps makefile scripts to generate reports.

The project uses third party projects such as : Blender3d to generate the 3d models and the game programming library Allegro, to generate canvas windows and colorize some pixels around.

The entire code took me 3/4 of a year and is my entire work.
