I sent my original message to webmasters-comment thinking that it was
the way to reach the webmasters without going thru RT. But it doesn't
work for that. (There was supposed to be one, but I cannot find it in
`aliases'.) So I am sending this to `webmasters' to include them in
the discussion, and including my original message to show them
what the issue is.

Care will have to be taken to make sure that a conflict case is handled
properly. If a GNU app were approved called 'fr' for instance.
Why would that be a problem? There is no fr.gnu.org now.
(We have an es.gnu.org, but that is a special case.)
Anyway, two-letter names for packages are rather unusual.
We could avoid those conflicts without great difficulty.

I think it should rely on Savannah database:
it easy to fetch projects account names and use them as
subdomain
If a special export is needed (database dump, xml), a simple script
to do it may be added in savannah/backend/gnu-specific
