Hi all, John suggest it on the #savannah channel that we should maybe change the frontage text, which I think it was a pretty good idea since I think that the current text doesn't represent what is Savannah at all.
Here is my proposal: Savannah, as many other sites, it's a forge, with a big different, we only host free software. All the software that you can find here it was reviewed and verified that doesn't have any license problem which include dependencies. Savannah aim to be a central point for development, maintenance and distribution of GNU Software and for projects that are free but not part of the GNU project we provide savannah.nongnu.org. If your project it's part of Savannah, it means that it was approved as part of the GNU project or at least as a Free Software that runs on free platforms and use only free dependencies. We want to provide, as far as we can, a good piece of software to help with the work that lead a project needs. Savannah also provides space for GUGs that may need a space to centralize their work. We provide two mailing-lists that you may want to subscribe to: * savannah-announce: low-volume notifications of important issues and changes at Savannah * savannah-users: discussion of savannah-announce and any user-oriented topic The software used to run Savannah is being developed by the Savane project. The Levitating, Meditating, Flute-playing Gnu logo is a GNU GPL'ed image provided by the Nevrax Design Team. Reviews, correction and news idea will be good. Also there's a different text for sv.nongnu.org, should we make it the same? there's a reason why the text are different?. Regards,
