FSF Migrating From Savannah to Gforge

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the its-never-easy-for-the-fsf dept.

bluestrain writes "It's been almost 4 months since Savannah was hacked. The site is still not completely functional, no new projects have been accepted since December 2003. Now it seems that the FSF is abandoning Savannah in favor of Gforge. RMS himself has confirmed the plans. A few developers are questioning the change. Hopefully the dust will settle and savannah can start accepting projects again."

    (Although I suggest that people using it make that decision based on a more technical analysis)

    Every few months, the cops come get him and force him to take a sponge bath, it's not big deal.
