and you did well :)

Incidentally, just for you to know, moving from nongnu to gnu implies  
several things:
- the webcvs should be synchronized with www.gnu.org and not www. 
nongnu.org. I do not know exactly how that is set up, sysadmins tend to  
manually add syncs to www.gnu.org at the moment. www.nongnu.org pages  
should not be available for GNU projects, but again, I do not know how  
that is set up.
- Savannah/Savane locks the files area to ftp.gnu.org, which should be  
changed some time; eg, the Grub project currently stores all its files  
to alpha.gnu.org.
- The last side-effect I can think of is the mailing-list creation:  
they are activated for @gnu.org, not @nongnu.org. Existant lists should  
be moved or maybe 'symlinked'. Savannah/Savane should take care of the  
new lists creation correctly.

There is an help request about moving several projects from nongnu to  
gnu. I did not worked on them (nor on my GNU project ;)) because I  
think it would be better to have the above features finished before.
