When I search that error message on the web, plenty of those instances come up and it seems as a rule to be a server side filesystem permissions problem. So I think the right people to contact are the savannah sysadmins. What you in a way did by opening an issue [1]. However you might want to re-ping the sysadmins [2]. (I can only guess that being a non-profit syadmin is the same as my sysadmin experience, but only more of the same: the open tickets count is only ever increasing, a *friendly* nudge is sometimes required :-/ ) *t [1] http://savannah.nongnu.org/support/?110149 [2] http://savannah.nongnu.org/contact.php
