What to you call "GNU servers"? If you mean fencepost, then you
should write to address@hidden - same process.

This is a manual process handled by the FSF sysadmins.

Dunno, maybe you should ask the sysadmins when they get back to you. I believe
they do a tighter identify check.

Yes, the sysadmins should send you a mail once that is done.
I agree this is confusing, but the 2 systems are separate. I'd
consider ftp.gnu.org for all kind of official, mirrored release, and
Savannah's as a more convenient download area.
