Okay - The program should probably create that directory automatically 
if it doesn't exist.

Not yet. Revision 11 is the latest.

That's fine - testing any any point is okay but if you're testing an old 
revision and find a bug it's best to check the current revision first and 
make sure the bug's still there (just in case later commits fixed it.)

Absolutely.

Not currently, but that's not a bad idea. Perhaps there could be a 
mailing list where notifications of commits could be sent? Perhaps the 
message could contain: Who made the change, what files were changed, and 
a diff. I think the Savannah administrators will need to arrange this. I'll 
contact them and ask about it.
