[Savannah-register-public] Re: submission of The L language - savannah.nongnu.org

[Matthieu Lemerre]

Hi, 

I registered through the savannah website the 31st of December (and
received the confirmation mail), but it seems that I am the only one
who received that mail (the savannah-register-public archive does not
have it, and it does not appear in the tasks of the savannah "admin"
project).

Should I re-register?

Thanks,
Matthieu Lemerre
