If you have a fencepost account, there an authoritative list in
/gd/gnuorg/maintainers. Sometimes, though, it happens it is not
perfectly up-to-date.

Since you are a GNU project, the preferred download location is
ftp.gnu.org (among others, it is mirrored). We'll try to improve the
documentation for GNU project so that people understand the difference
between the 2 download locations. We didn't delete the Savannah
download area for GNU projects, since it can be convenient for
non-official releases.

Check http://savannah.gnu.org/download/dominion/
However, you should consider using ftp.gnu.org instead of Savannah for
official releases.
I am sorry this is confusing, but people in charge of Savannah and
ftp.gnu.org are different teams..
