Re: [Savannah-users] How to set up a new project

[Gerardo Ballabio]

Ok, I've set up the mailing list and registered the SSH key. May I ask
another couple of questions:
- do I have to use CVS in order to set up the home page or can I use
another VCS (say Subversion) or even no VCS at all?
- I suppose I could upload the code tarball to nongnu.org/galois as
well, but I see that a download area has been created on Savannah
(http://download.savannah.gnu.org/releases/galois/), I guess it's
better to upload there. How can I do that?

Thank you again.

Gerardo
