That would be a shame.
But I'd understand.

The master repository for the GNU coreutils is on my desktop.
I used ssh/rsync to push a read-only copy of that repository to
savannah every day or two.

Having savannah `pull' from my desktop was suggested,
but I won't allow the incoming access required for that.

If it's no longer possible, then please remove the coreutils
repository from savannah.  It's already out of date -- I released
coreutils-5.1.0 yesterday.  We survived for quite some time without
shared CVS access, we can do it again...
