Re: [Savannah-hackers] submission of Implausibility - savannah.gnu.org

Hi,

I'm evaluating the project you submitted for approval in Savannah.

Savannah does not host OS distributions, mainly for bandwidth reasons.
However, we would be glad to host parts of it as separate project(s).

I will ask you to resubmit your project in terms that comply with that
policy. However, keep in mind that:

- I will delete projects "implausibility" and "imp" so you can use
those names again

- You will not have to wait as much longer than you just had (We
started accepting new projects a month ago and had troubles clearing
the backlog and finding new volunteers to help.)
