The key question here is to figure out if your project
can run on a Free Software Java suite
(see http://www.gnu.org/software/java/ for more
information). Could you give us some explanation about
this point?

If it's dependant of SUN JRE 1.4.1, it means that project requires
proprietary software and cannot be hosted on Savannah for this
reason. 

Savannah is willing to provide resources and time to
developers writing Free Software that can be used
without the need to ask for permission to a proprietary
software vendor.

If, someday, you get free of those dependencies (see
http://www.gnu.org/software/java for more informations),
do not hesitate to resubmit your project.

        Thanks for your understanding,
        Regards,
