Wasn't Savannah's main system Savane a fork of SourceForge's proprietary software version? Anybody have more of a clue about the relations between the various versions and what that might mean for our chances of getting this system adopted by Savannah? If we have a really viable migration path out of non-Savannah hosting, it seems like putting our eggs not in too many outsourced baskets might save us from some future headaches like the Google code one. -- David Kastrup _______________________________________________ lilypond-devel mailing list lilypond-devel@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-devel
