I don't. The requirements page should list the hosting requirements. 
That's it. Differences and interpretations can be expanded upon 
elsewhere (which is the Wiki page "how to get your projects approved 
quickly").

Yes, and it is now stated so in the two pages we've mentioned.

First,
this is incomplete description: ALL projects are reviewed and all 
projects must pass subjective evalation, both gnu and non-gnu.
It is simply the case that evaluation is done by different people for
each type. To repeat: ALL projects hosted on savannah have been
subjectively reviewed and approved.

Second,
The fact that all projects require a review process is now clearly 
mentioned in the last section of the requirements page,
with links to details about the review process for gnu and non-gnu.
Those further details expand upon the review process, including
exercising the judgement of the reviewers.
