 I recall we talked about it. I did not remember it was formally part
of the GNU project. If you say so I take your word for it. I did the
necessary changes and the repository is now at
subversions.gnu.org:/webcvs/gnubiz and you can use it.

 Ok. The fact that it's mirrored at www.gnu.org does not imply that there
will be a link from the www.gnu.org to it. You can see this as a mirror. 
Savannah works this way as far as web pages are concerned.

 There is no problem, the only question was to know if it was an official
GNU project.
