I have found the bug (and one weakness making the bug possible).

The bug was that the project became disapproved and there was no mechanism to 
create a change request to approve it again (even if one knows the unique id 
and can inspect the entry). Now any change request (even on a disapproved 
project entry) adds a request for (new) approval.

The weakness was that it probably was disapproved by hitting the "reject" link 
in the manager's user interface unplanned. I have added a confirmation popup 
(needs a browser with at least very simple JavaScript to handle return 
confirm"some message"); and onclick events).

I have pushed it to the GNUstep server and it should work in 1-2 hours.

And I have fixed the Gemas entry manually which now appears on the overview 
page.

BR,
Nikolaus
