Summary:  Post-It: Savane History, from Sourceforge to Savane

Original Submission:  Savane is the continuation of the Savannah software project by 
the same team of developers and contributors, under a slightly modified name (Savane 
is the French word for Savannah). 

This change was made to avoid confusion between this software and the GNU Development 
Platform, both named Savannah. 

At first, Savannah was not meant to be a software project but just an installation of 
the software SourceForge 2.0 for GNU. But soon after Savannah was set up, SourceForge 
became proprietary software. Since improvements to the source code were necessary to 
be able to run Savannah in decent conditions, it was for a team of Libre Software 
enthusiasts logical to continue the adventure by creating a fork, called after the 
name of the development platform they were maintainers of.
