Hi Ghent,

Currently we host only software/documentation project or
FSF-coordination-related projects. 

Anyway, I think it would be a good idea, for the promotion of GNU Hurd, to
allow hosting of this particular kind of association. For example, we
can set a type of project as GUG (GNU[/Linux] Users Groups). It should
give credits to the GNU Project and the FSF in a area where many
people only talks about "linux".

Technically, it can be done with ease. And this kind of projects
shouldn't take so much ressources. 

Note also that savannah can now works with differents url depending on
the project type. It's not in production since my kerberos access to
fencepost has not been reactivated since the system corruption,
neither Jaime Villate (address@hidden) one, and Loic Dachary is very
busy to others matters currently.   

Richard, Loic, and address@hidden people, what do you think of this idea?

Regards,
