That's not the problem. You modified the files commitinfo and loginfo
perfectly, following Savannah's documentation, but the documentation assumes
that all projects source code goes into a module with the same name of your
project!

In your case, you have requested that any changes to the "openvortex" module
be notified to the openvortex-commits list, but there has been nothing to
report, since the "openvortex" module has not changed since January of 2002
:-)

Since you have decided to define use modules different from "openvortex", if
you wanted the mailing system to report your recent changes in the
aureal-2.x-pre module, you should have replaced "^openvortex" by "
aureal-2.x-pre" in the files commitinfo and loginfo.

You would have to write a similar entry for each module you want reported, or
as explained in the commitinfo and loginfo files, use the keyword ALL
instead of ^openvortex
