Can you give me the exact URL of the page before the problem, and the
page of the problem?

Currenly there are 2 pending news items waiting for approval for
project GnuAE. You should also check them.

You lack an index.html file, and it seems www.gnu.org is configured
not to accept directory listing.

You can create a .symlink file for that task, containing:
gnuae.html index.html

For now, it would be easier to create one of the standard help-, info-
or bug- mailing list, as described in the e-mail from RMS.

I have to ask what whether the program name alone is accepted, and
also whether it can contain 'gnu'.
