Welcome to Gna!
This site is a central point for development, distribution and maintenance of Libre Software (Free Software) projects.
Gna! provides Source Code Repositories (CVS, GNU Arch, Subversion), Download Area, Web Pages, Mailing-Lists and Trackers (Bugs, Task, Support Requests, Patches). If you would like to use these facilities to host your project, then go to the Register new project menu entry that is displayed after login.
Most of the documentation is included in the pages themselves, the place where you are most likely to need it. If you want more information, take a look at the Cookbook for howtos or at the In Depth Savane User Guide for issues related to the web interface. If it is not helpful enough to you, fill a Support Request.
If you want to learn more about the Gna! project, its contributors, its policy or its history, please consult the About Gna! page. To be kept in the loop, we suggest that you subscribe to the low traffic list named news.
The hardware of Gna! is provided by FSF France and the bandwidth is offered by Bearstech. The platform is powered by the Savane software.
