The GNU Policy for hosted free software projects is that they are to always remain available to the community. Even if the original maintainer leaves or becomes disabled others might pick the project up and continue it. > but there is a picture that I committed many years > ago to the web cvs repository.

However I sympathize with you and therefore I broke the rules and did remove that (innocuous in my opinion) image from the repository as it is not source code and is purely peripheral to the project. Note however that we have no control over any other mirror site that may have additional copies of projects. Requests such as these of this type should always be made to savannah-hackers-private as the savannah-hackers-public list is also public and just draws attention to these things. Are you aware of the Streisand Effect? The act of trying to suppress something simply calls more attention to it. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Streisand_effect Usually it is best to leave sleeping dogs lie. Bob
