I figured that the 5 projects that I could not access in        
the past was private. So ToPAS does not timestamp these as    
prior art. But I am really amazed if it is true that you   
now host 92 private projects.       
   
The rsync takes around 10 minutes and only transfers      
changes compressed. Only the first transfer took 5 GB   
(which was around 2 GB compressed and was transfered around 
september 10).  
     
If you do not think rsync is the way to transfer the     
changes how would you propose an automated way of getting     
every changed file of every old project and all files of 
every new project?

There are some private projects in Savannah. That is why you
are getting errors saying that those directories cannot be
opened; therefore, ToPAS cannot monitor every Savannah
project. You should change your scripts to make them ignore
any projects you cannot access.

I do not remember if I've told you in the past that you
should  get a copy of /cvsroot using rsync, but I think that
is not a good idea. The /cvsroot directory takes about 5
Gigabytes. Do you really need a copy of every file in the
CVS repository?
