Hello.

I had a look at your CVS repository and I didn't found any further problems for us.

So I think we can close this tracker item. Have fun with Savannah. :-)

Yes, thank you, I can use CVS now.
I had assumed the cron job would be finished reliably after 1 hour:

"Wait for the next cron job (in the worst case, 1 hour)."

Please wait for the cron. Seems to be done now.

I can't access the CVS repository. The error is "access denied".

You can still use SF.net as a mirror but Savannah should be your primary development 'area'.

But hopefully a 'ROM image' doesn't take too much space and bandwidth. ;)

Regards and have fun with Savannah.

I plan to use Savannah as a CVS server and web server for the project homepage. Other services will come into it when other developers join the project. A mailing list and/or forum might be interesting at that point.
When hardware is developed for the project and an embedded operating system becomes necessary the distribution will have the size of a ROM image but I can host is at sourceforge if you do not want to host it on savannah.

Hello.

I have approved your project for inclusion in Savannah.

We will be reviewing the cvs code in a month (or better at your request) to check if the source files contain appropriate copyright notice and permission-to-copy statements at the beginning of every file of source code.
Our review would help catch potential legal issues early.

You should get an automated email with more information shortly.


But as mentioned in the registration pages, we do not host complete distros, distros isos, packages repositories, etc, for space and bandwidth reasons.
We may just offer support for organisational purpose and in-house developed software (such as iso creation scripts).



How do you plan to use the Savannah services?


Regards,

Sebastian Wieseler <kickino>

Yes, that is perfectly okay as I do not expect any problems. The project will not rely on anything but GNU Classpath at first.
In a later stage it may include a uLinux distribution.

Hi,

Your projects meets the Savannah requirements, except that we cannot review your source code yet.

We can approve it, and review the code in the near future (or better, at your request).
We will among other check if the source files contain appropriate copyright notice and permission-to-copy statements
at the beginning of every file of source code. Our review would help catch potential legal issues early.

If then the source code does not meet our requirements (for example, non-free dependencies),
we will then discuss the issue and possibly remove the project from Savannah.

Is this ok for you?

I intend to use the CVS repository for source code from the very beginning and, of course, I hope to attract interested developers to help with the project.

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



You must determine whether your project can run on a Free Software Java suite
(see http://www.gnu.org/software/java/ for more information).

We recommend you to test your project using GCJ and GNU Classpath, and ensure
that your Java code runs on this Free Software Java suite.

GCJ is the GNU Compiler for Java, part of the GCC (GNU Compiler Collection).
The Classpath project aims to develop a free and portable implementation of the Java API
(the classes in the 'java' package).

More information is available at http://gcc.gnu.org/ and http://www.gnu.org/software/classpath/ .

Please provide us with more information about this point.


Furthermore "Linux" is just a kernel of a more complex system that we like to refer to
as GNU/Linux, to emphasize the ideals of the Free Software movement.

Would you mind changing references to Linux as an OS to GNU/Linux?

For more information, see http://www.gnu.org/gnu/linux-and-gnu.html.


And at last, we would like to review your source code. If you don't have got one yet, so how would you like to use Savannah? Do you really need your project now? Or is it enough to re-register your project when you have got any source code to show us?

Regards,

Sebastian Wieseler <kickino>

A new project has been registered at Savannah
The project account will remain inactive until a site admin approve or discard the registration.


######### 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):

  <https://savannah.nongnu.org/admin/groupedit.php?group_id=8085>


######### REGISTRATION DETAILS #########

Full Name:
----------
  blackboard

System Group Name:
-----------------
  blackboard

Type:
-----
  non-GNU software &amp; documentation

License:
--------
  GNU General Public License V2 or later

Description:
------------
  A Blackboard control software for the control of an e-Paper blackboard that can recognize the pen position like a graphics tablet.
The first stage will aim to provide a pure software solution, displaying a blackboard as a desktop application and using the mouse as the pointing device.
The second stage is to design custom hardware for such a blackboard. The board would aim to be operable without an attached computer. In this mode the board would only offer basic functions (write, erase, move, page, draw curves, vectorize, zoom, OCR) and, possibly, the execution of small Java applets stored in the board's onboard computer. The board would allow to be attached to a more powerful computer by USB or FireWire and allow this computer to render on the board as a specialized display device.
The board could be made of stackable tiles with a standardized resolution. The board could be made to be usable without power, if a pen device can be designed that can modify the state of e-Paper without an active controller.


Other Software Required:
------------------------
  The software projects depends on the Java core libraries.
The hardware projects depends on libgcj and an embedded operating system, e.g. uLinux.


Other Comments:
---------------
  There is no source code yet.
