Hello Aaraai,
this mailing list is mainly a read-only list where the Savannah system logs the messages of the item tracker. I doubt it is read by many people except some technical staff. I recommend to post that question on http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/savannah-hackers-public where most of the public discussions about Savannah's policy take place.
