I am sorry to bother you again, but I am still not able to access the ftp directory for uploading the release to the non-gnu download area:

$ cmdftp savannah.gnu.org
cmdftp:/>cd /incoming/savannah/
cmdftp:/incoming/savannah>cd jugtail
cmdftp: (remote) 550 Failed to change directory.

The file download area link
http://download.savannah.nongnu.org/releases/jugtail/

reports

"
Not found

The link /releases/jugtail/ could not be found. It was probably renamed or removed by the project team.

Moreover, there is no jugtail project hosted at Savannah. Please check the address.
"

Is there something I missed?

Thank you,

Claudio

Hello.


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 and the license notices of the files provided of the FSF, too.

http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl.txt
http://www.gnu.org/licenses/lgpl.txt
http://www.gnu.org/licenses/fdl.txt

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

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




Then I have approved your project.  You will receive an automated e-mail containing detailed information about the approval.

Regards.

I left the dependencies blank for a reason, since the programming language is C, and the required libraries are the standard C library plus POSIX extensions. The program is a well known Unix program, I though I did not have to list them.

? There is already working source code attached to this item, what else do you need?

Do you think I should rephrase my description? I think it is ok for the general public too. It is simply a Gopher search tool, and there's no reason to hide that this is a modified form of the original Jughead codebase I think, as long as we don't say 'this is Jughead'.

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


At first, we need a detailed technical description that specifies such requirements as programming languages and external libraries.
It should be at least one-half a page.


At second, please include a (perhaps temporary) URL pointing to the source code.
The description you gave when registering will not be read by the general public.
If you are still concerned with privacy, however, 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 GPL you must include a copyright notice and
permission-to-copy statements at the beginning of every file of source code.  This is explained in
http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-howto.html.  Our review would help catch potential omissions such as these.

Regards,

Sebastian Wieseler <kickino>
