Hi again!

Files pywoodchuck.py and woodchuck.py are licensed under GPLv2+, I recommend upgrading to GPLv3+. Anyway, I'm approving your project, happy hacking! You'll receive mail with instructions shortly.

Registration Administration


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: Woodchuck
  • System Name:  woodchuck
  • Type: non-GNU software & documentation
  • License: GNU General Public License v3 or later (The Woodchuck server, Murmeltier, is GPLv3+. The C library and Python modules are GPLv2+.)





Description:

Woodchuck is a scheduler for network transmissions. Applications register pending network transmissions with the Woodchuck server. When Woodchuck detects good conditions, e.g., power and WiFi availability, it may start the application and send it upcalls indicating that it should now execute some network transfer.


Other Software Required:

glib LGPLv2+ http://git.gnome.org/browse/glib
libdbus-glib + Academic Free License version 2.1 / GPLv2 + http://gitweb.freedesktop.org/?p=dbus/dbus-glib.git
sqlite3 + public domain + http://sqlite.org/
Network Manager + GPLv2 + http://projects.gnome.org/NetworkManager/?x=22

Homepage
========

The project's current homepage is:

Re: My project runs primarily on a completely free OS
==================================================

Currently Woodchuck run primarily on Maemo, which is not completely free. However, good support is provided for Debian GNU/Linux when using Network Manager. Full support for Debian GNU/Linux-based systems is planned.

Dependencies
============

Either Network Manager or Maemo's ICD2 is required, not both. Although ICD2 is a dependency, it is only used via IPC mechanism. Moreover, I think ICD2 can be considered an essential system component consistent with http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-faq.html#GPLIncompatibleLibs
