You might have a good point if the maintainers supported using savannah. This is simple not the case. Roland, for instance, has recently said [1] that he mostly ignores the messages from the savannah patch manager as it is too difficult to find the relevant information. (I don't know if this also excludes the bug reports that the savannah bug manager sends to the lists as well, however.)
