"development status" on Savannah page

[Glenn Morris]

http://savannah.gnu.org/projects/emacs/

lists the "development status" of Emacs as "0 - Undefined".

Please can any of the project admins set this to an actual value ("6 -
Mature", I think). Otherwise I will ask savannah admin to do it.
Thanks.

And the license is also out of date.

Done.  License changed to GPLv3 as well.

For the info about branches, I'm not sure how/where to put that info.
I think that we need to extend the savannah interface for that because the
best place to put it is in the "Development tools" section, but there's no
way for me to add any info in there.

Thanks. Actually, rms said (off-list) to keep the license as v2 or
later till 22.2 was released. I should have mentioned this, sorry.

There is no need for that, because the branches are only for
development.

The most important ones (multi-tty and unicode-2) ought to be obsolete
soon.

I would suggest putting that info in the description too.

I guess it is correct to change that in Savannah, since it is about
the repository itself.  Please forget what I said earlier about that.

I changed my mind when I realized that this relates to the license
in the repository rather than to the license in the release.
Changing it to say GPLv3 was the right thing.
