Hi,

I search via google using option site:gnu.org
I permits me to get any page with occurence of anubis on
gnu.org. 
So any info I get come from the GNU project, gnu.org.

At this time, I havent found any other way to get this
information. All infos (outdated) on gnu.org related to anubis was
saying that this project is not GNU and no public mailing-list was
saying the contrary.

Generally we get a copy of the message from you at
savannah-hackers. Anyway, there must be public mailing list, with
public archives, that list all this mails. People with no access to
fencepost must be able to determine whether a project is GNU or not.

The usual means are the Free Software Directory but it can be outdated
(it the case for anubis).
