New Project Registration

In the following steps (5) you will be asked to provide a description of your project and a choice between options such as the licence that apply to your project.

Please, write only in English, as it is the only language that everybody at Gna! can understand.

You are welcome to host your project here if it falls within one of these groups:

• Libre Software Project
  A libre software (free software) package that can run on a completely free operating system, without depending on any non-free software. You can only provide versions for non-free operating systems if you also provide free operating systems versions with the same or more functionalities. Large software distributions are not allowed; they should be split into separate projects.
• Libre Documentation Projects
  Documentation for libre software programs, released under a Free Documentation License.
• Libre Software related Organization
  An Organization that support Libre Software, like a GNU User Group.

To keep compatibility among hosted projects, we only accept libre software licenses that are compatible with the GPL. The list of GPL-compatible licenses covers several of the most commonly used licenses; if you are not familiar with that list, please take some time to read GPL-Compatible, Free Software Licenses.

Keep in mind that your project will not be approved automatically after you follow the registration steps, but it will have to be evaluated by one of the Gna! people, in regard of our principles stated in our Constitution. That process may take from one day to a week, depending on the current number of pending projects.
