Taking a Project Public

[Derek Neighbors]

You might want to look some at Pygmy (http://pygmy.sourceforge.net/) if
you have never seen it before.  It is another Python based email program. 
I think your link for the screenshot is .png instead of .py.  Looks like a
pretty cool program.

Savannah will probably someday use Subversion but does not currently
(http://savannah.gnu.org/).  In order for GNUe to use subversion we just
bit the bullet and run our own.
