I've moved those projects, and made new checkouts on www.gnu.org. To
be
clear, writing to us is the right way to do this for now, but I want
to
summarize the process.
Here's what I do to move projects' web space out of the www project
into
their own:
1) move the files in ...webcvs/www/software/foo to ...webcvs/foo/foo
that way the version history is preserved across the move.
2) chgrp -R webfoo the moved files
3) on www.gnu.org, I check them out into a special directory, and
update
the symlinks (this is what new.py is supposed to do).
Once the new.py script is working, you'll be able to do it yourself by
doing steps 1 and 2 and then calling new.py manually. Paul is working
on fixing it and will write email when it is done.
