Hello Sebastian,

Sorry for that inconveniences, this is my first attempt to contribute software to GNU...

I totally agree with GNU philosophy, so I had no intention to make a v2-only license, I just copied the text from another (too old) source code.

Now, the "xhotkeys" script and the corresponding .glade file are correct (I expect so!)

regards

Hello.

At first, Licensing under the "GNU GPL v2 only" is problematic.
 Would you agree to license your project under the "GNU GPL v2 or later"?

The reason for this is that when we publish GPL v3,
it will be important for all GPL-covered programs to advance to GPL v3.
If you don't put this in the files now, the only way to port your program to GPL v3 would be to ask each
and every copyright holder, and that may be very difficult.

We can explain the issue in more detail if you wish.
If you have concerns about "GNU GPL v2 or later", we'd be happy to address them too.



At second, 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.

Updates 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

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


Furthermore, you *glade file lacks copyright+license - please add such notices there too.

Regards,

Sebastian Wieseler <kickino>

- Added Copyright notices and permission-to-copy statements at the
beginning of the code (for now, only xhotkey).

- Uploaded COPYING containing GPL license

- Uploaded file TODO.

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


In order to release your project properly and unambiguously under the GPL,
please place copyright notices and permission-to-copy statements at the beginning of every file of source code.

In addition, if you haven't already, please include a copy of the plain text version of the GPL,
available from http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl.txt, into a file named "COPYING".

For more information, see http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-howto.html.

The GPL FAQ explains why these procedures must be followed.
To learn why a copy of the GPL must be included with every copy of the code, for example,
see http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-faq.html#WhyMustIInclude.


Regards,

Sebastian Wieseler <kickino>
