I too have read through the bug logs and admin documentation and tried the suggestions.

Right; the window of opportunity for savannah to act as a hosting service for arch-controlled projects has been closed for too long. I'd hate to see people resort to sf.net for arch-controlled projects just because they offer working sftp and savannah doesn't. > By the trust vested in me as a Debian developer, I promise I won't do > anything untoward with any access I am given. As I'm not a debian developer and have no other token of trustworthiness to show, I volunteer as an unprivileged tester.
