Is this your personal opinion or was it widely discussed here?

Removing data which never gets updates is of course clearly better
than pretending that it is up to date, but maybe there are more
options (see below).

There are still a lot of links pointing to QEMU on Savannah,
that's why I'd neither remove the git repo there nor the
project page.

Maintaining a web page at Savannah which redirects to qemu.org
and having a git mirror which automatically synchronizes
with the official git repository would be a good idea
(this is my personal opinion). I offer to setup and
maintain it, if I get the necessary rights.
