I do not.  In my opinion we should only look if the project it is Free
Software or not.  If it is Free Software then we should offer to host
it.

If the project ever wants to be part of the GNU project and it causes
"harm or unfairness" then it shouldn't be part of the GNU project.

Of course I agree that it isn't fair if somebody cheats in a game but
it shouldn't be up to Savannah to say what is fair or what is not.

Everybody should be free to cheat or not.
