Since GNU make is a fundamental FSF package, with copyright owned by
them, etc. I wouldn't feel right about moving it off of Savannah without
their permission, and I don't think this is a sufficiently compelling
reason to move.

If Mercurial were to be supported on Savannah then I guess that's
another possibility that I'd consider, of course.  I've not seen any
plans for this so far though.
