One of the things we've complaint about Sourceforge is precisely the fact that
they do not let you remove a project. And it was my understanding that in
Savannah we wanted users to be in control of their projects (of course, if the
project becomes a community project with more than one developer that's a
different case).
We cannot oppose someone's choice to remove his/her project. If we do, it
will happen what a lot of us have done in Sourceforge: rather thatn asking for
removal of our porjects we completely deleted the CVS repository and
description for our projects, being left with an empty project.
Cheers,
Jaime
