Hi,

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

The licensing of your README files is ok. Please, would you add a license header to them, just a few lines referring to the CCO license?

I'm approving your project, you will receive an automated e-mail containing detailed information about the approval.

Regards.

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: FoxUp
  • System Name:  foxup
  • Type: non-GNU software and documentation
  • License: Other (BSD 2-clause for foxup.rb

CC0 1.0 Universal for foxup.svg, README.fu, README.html and README.md)




Description:

FoxUp is a mode-based markup language, based on a "define-and-reset" markup style. The idea lies in the user defining the basic layout of their document in powerful syntax, and letting FoxUp take care of making it look consistent and professional, reverting as much as they need in one command.

For example, the syntax "`rf20bi." would enter Markup mode, right-align the selection, set the font-size to 20 pixels, turn the text bold and italic and go back to Input mode, where the user can enter text. This effect would remain until the user reverts it, most easily with "`q." (Enter Markup mode, revert all, enter Input mode). Please note that FoxUp is still under development, and that the specific commands may change at any time.

The main inspiration to write FoxUp is a dislike for Markdown's syntax.

It parses FoxUp documents, outputting HTML5 documents.

It is written in Ruby.


Other Software Required:

HTMLEntities | MIT (Expat) | http://htmlentities.rubyforge.org/


Other Comments:

I'm not sure how README licensing even works, but I find it important that the example README file, both in FoxUp and parsed HTML format, are public domain, to give users unrestricted freedom in working with this example.
