Hi, I'm the maintainer of the Savane source code, and I have decided to merge it with the FusionForge project.
This is an on-going work with a conversion script at: http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/savane-cleanup.git/tree/sv2ff/ However, I can't complete this alone, so this project needs more people from the Savannah community.
