Hi Iago,

Sorry I missed this email the first time.  (In the future, please use
our public email list at gnome-infrastructure gnome org).


Have you reviewed GNOME's Project Requisites[1] and does the project
meet those?  (I see from your blog post the project is LGPL so that
requirement is met).  Do you plan on migrating from Gitorious to GNOME's
Git in the future?

Thanks.

Paul
