I don't believe either you or Carl needs any coercion to fix lily-git.tc.
Besides, lily-git.tcl is only a small fraction of the things which may stop a contributor from helping out. If savannah is down, then nobody can push (or pull) anything.
Neither can a release be made anyway. So these "reasons" are no justification for this policy. You still haven't convinced me it will actually have any effect. Don't get me wrong. Whether we place these issues in a critical category or not is hardly a vital decision, but here we're talking about deciding Policy. Policy decisions must be based on sound and justifiable arguments, not opinion or expediency. So my concern is that we are not following a sufficiently sound approach here.
