    Therefor I do not thing the short "requirement" page will
    likely change.

Well, given that Savannah is GNU's forge, and GNU's (rms's) policy is to
recommend GPLv3+, it seems only rational for Savannah to state that
recommendation as well.  There are other recommendations in
requirements.txt already.  Therefore, I made this change to
administration/content/gnu-content/register/requirements.txt:

--- requirements.txt.~1.18.~    2014-12-09 08:31:14.000000000 -0800

If problems, feel free to revert/edit and we can discuss.  I leave the
