[Savannah-hackers] Non GNU projects

        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,
