According to:
http://savannah.gnu.org/statement.html
it should be back shortly, so I don't think it be worth the trouble of  
doing a move now.

Maybe we should consider a backup alternative, but it would have to have 
at least equivalent security level, infrastructure and maintance 
resources.  Once services are back, instead we maybe should look into 
how we can make savannah more dependable and figure out what the status 
of subversions for savannah is, as I /think/ they were aiming at moving 
from cvs to subversions anyway.
