Hi John, first please accept my apologizes, my reply was a
unappropriately harsh.
I did apparently read your message to fast and I understood "I've
volunteered to handhold or liaise as necessary [...] and will go ahead
filling in the Register New Project form", which would have been a
problem. Sorry for the confusion, you were right and I was wrong.
But apart from that, I do not think that someone should "handhold" or
"liaise" a dedicated kind of project. Basically, the interlocutor for
Savannah users should be the savannah-hackers list, not an individual
on the list (unless there something very unusual that need to be
settled by an individual from the list), users should be using the
savannah support request tool instead of taking the habbit to rely on
a specific person.
Any savannah-related tasks (support, development) are better handled
with the tools that every savannah hackers use.
