I have not tried to study each point in your message -- there were so
many -- but I noticed criticism of Savannah for not offering
two-factor authentication.
When I was asked to do this, I couldn't do it, because it depended on
carrying a protable listening and surveillance device (aka cellular
phone). MIT had to make a special exception for me, turning that
requirement off, when it demanded that I access its administrative
systems.
Savannah must not do this if it requires the user to use nonfree
programs.
If people are interested in discussing this point, let's use
gnu-prog-discuss@gnu.org as it is off-topic here.
