No, it did not.

GNU infrastructure is somewhat a closed book to me, but I thought savannah.gnu.org would just be a modernized interface to the GNU directory. I might be wrong though. As I said I lost my server credentials. From what you write I get the impression ftp.gnu.org would be the preferable location for updates?
