I'll summarize the situation, so you can correct me if I'm wrong:
- you registered your project some time ago
- someone set it to private
- you registered your project again under a different name
- I approved your project:
     * I couldn't find any project "gnuspeech" 
     * I did find the sources
     * I assumed that somebody just uploaded the sources
     * I approved your project and set the location of the files to be
placed in /cvsroot/gnuspeech/.  Where the original sources are.
- Yesterday the sources were public.

Because your original project has been set to private I couldn't find
it through the search on the website.  I didn't think about private
projects. Sorry about that.

Do not worry, your sources are still on savannah!  Your project was
available yesterday because when a project gets "made" the permissions
are set ok.  But because the first project was set to private I must
have changed (cronjob I think).

Matthieu, Jaime or Loic: what is the easiest way to fix this?
I would suggest to remove the newest project and to update the
permissions of the first registered project.

David: it would have been easier that you knew your project was set to
private, and asked us to update the permissions :)
