Hi,
As suggested by Stefan Kangas, I am sending a problem report. I
recently tried to request inclusion in the Emacs group, but the search
for "emacs" only returns the "elisp-es" group. Please see below the
list of steps I followed and what happened. According to Stefan, when
he follows the same steps, he gets the same results as well.
Thanks,
Adam Porter

Hi Adam,

Something strange seems to be going on, then. AFAICT, this is all the
result of my following the instructions on Savannah. That is:
1. Visit <https://savannah.gnu.org/project/memberlist.php?group=emacs>.
2. At the top of the page, it says, "If you would like to contribute to
this project by becoming a member, use the request for inclusion form."
So I click that "request for inclusion" link, which points to
<https://savannah.gnu.org/my/groups.php?words=emacs#searchgroup>.
3. On the next page, under "Request for Inclusion," I see:
Below is the result of the search in the groups database.
To request inclusion in one or several groups, check the boxes,
write a meaningful message for group administrator who will approve or
discard the request, and submit the form.
Una Introducción a Emacs Lisp en Español.
Now, since sending the request to that group, in the list under
"Requests for inclusion waiting for approval", I see a link entitled
"Una Introducción a Emacs Lisp en Español." which points to
<https://savannah.gnu.org/projects/elisp-es/>.
So somehow the group search for "emacs" is returning only the "elisp-es"
group, and its underlying "elisp-es" name is only visible after sending
the inclusion request.

Not that this is your problem, but I'd be grateful for advice on how to
proceed. :)
Hmm, I see the same as you after step 3, and I also can't find the Emacs
group there. Something seems off, or I'm missing something too.
Could you send the above report to the Savannah admins? I believe they
can be contacted at savannah-hackers@gnu.org
Best regards,
Stefan Kangas
