To tell the truth, our concerns dwell in a somewhat different plain.  Savannah
has a few [//savannah.nongnu.org/register/requirements.php hosting
requirements] to be followed by the admins of the hosted packages, and they
are surprisingly hard to follow for the newcomers.  Still our users expect
that these packages live up to these standards, so we need to make sure that
the admins who take over orphan groups are able to comply with them.

On the other hand, it seems possible to me that after all these years of
discontinued maintenance the Savannah jcal group isn't actually the 'upstream'
for the distros any more, that is,

* updates in it will not be automatically accepted by the distros, and
* the distros may accept bug fixes from other sources.
