[Savannah-help-public] Obstacle to helping Savannah

[Richard Stallman]

Someone who decided not to help on Savannah wrote to me and said:

    I was told that I needed to run it locally.  I was told that it could
    take months or a year of experimenting and getting to know Savane on a
    local machine before I could help with Savannah.

    That is probably why you are short on help. ;)

Perhaps he has misunderstood, but could you tell me more about
this situation?  Can you show me the response you send to people
who offer to help administer Savannah?
