Regarding project deletion, it has explicitly been Savannah's policy never to delete "real" projects. Whether it ever worked does not matter. See: http://savannah.gnu.org/maintenance/RemovingProject
This originates with rms, as far as I know. The idea being that if someone has released free software to the world, there is no benefit to us in removing it. In general, we must be very conservative about deleting anything. I could agree in principle with Jim's point of "delisting from an index", or providing something about how active a project is, or something. But not outright deletion. This is separate from submission criteria. I still owe a message on that, but for the most part, Ineiev is saying what I believe ... best, karl P.S. That wiki page talks about "if projects are hosted elsewhere". I would say that that would apply if the other host is one that supports free software (of which there are two: gna and puszca). But moving onto github or sourceforge or whatever doesn't seem like we should drop it from savannah to me, since honestly, who knows what those forges will do in the future. Again, something where the project should be marked as inactive, but not outright deleted, it seems to me.
