Hi,
To summarize the situation as I see it now regarding the hosting
of non-gnu projects by the GNU project.
1) Domain name
All information related to non-gnu projects will be available
under the domain name freesoftware.fsf.org. You decided for this name
two month ago. It is now possible that this name is changed to
non-gnu.gnu.org or non-gnu.fsf.org and that should not be a problem
until a public announcement is made.
2) Services
A ready freesoftware.fsf.org -> savannah.gnu.org
(http virtual host)
B mail.freesoftware.fsf.org -> fencepost.gnu.org
(http virtual host + separate mailman installation)
C ready cvs.freesoftware.fsf.org -> subversions.gnu.org
(exactly the same)
D ftp.freesoftware.fsf.org -> ftp.gnu.org
(root is the /non-gnu/ directory that already exists in
ftp.gnu.org)
B requires some non trivial work and Guillaume + Miguel are working
on it. D requires work and Mark + myself are working on it.
3) Licenses
Free Software projects will only be accepted if they have a
license that is compatible with the GPL. Other licenses may be
accepted but require discussion on a case by case basis. You
will have to say yes/no for each case.
4) Hardware
The current hardware of Savannah allows to host thousands of projects
thanks to the recent upgrade.
5) Workload
I commited myself to handle the load + find volunteers to handle it
when it grows. Three new volunteers joined in the past two weeks.
What's left to be done ? Technically the mail and the ftp server.
Other than this I don't see. Could you help me find out ?
Thanks for your help,
