Contents of emacs-21.3-fullbin-i386.tar.gz.back-RSN.README (or any
*.back-RSN.README, for that matter), downloaded and opened in good ol'
NOTEPAD, reads as follows:

On the page 
Under "Further Information" following the _Savannah_Emacs_page_ link leads
to http://savannah.gnu.org/statement.html which begins:

"""
                                        Friday 19 December 2003, 19:00 EST

Unfortunately, we will not be able to make the roll out we'd hoped for
(today), as we have a few minor issues remaining to solve regarding
secured cvs commit access.  We are very close to bringing the savannah
site back up for normal use by existing projects, but that issue must be
resolved first.

We expect to resolve them and roll out by the early morning of Tuesday 23
December 2003 at the latest.  This is an absolute deadline for us -- not
merely a target -- as many key members of FSF's staff will begin holiday
vacations here in the USA.  We are completely committed to bringing the
site back up for existing projects before that happens.

I don't know whether Savannah has anything to contribute to the restoration
of http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/windows/emacs/ or not, does anyone else know?
