That means that every person with a GNU account must have a savannah
account.  That is a reasonable requirement, but it should be well
documented.

One requirement though: it must be the case that *someone else* can create
that savannah account and do all the work related to account creation on
savannah.  And, the procedure on how to do this must be documented
somewhere (the canonical place is sysadmin.texi).

Can someone please make this happen?

Yes, please do.  It is ok if sysadmin.texi points to other documentation,
but the documentation in sysadmin.texi *must* be accurate!
