You are correct that unless Pat wants this project to become an 
"official" part of the GNU project, he'd want to instead register it at 
the "Non-GNU" site:

     http://savannah.nongnu.org

On the project registration page for that site 
(http://savannah.nongnu.org/register) I see the sentence:

"""
Please note that currently we are only accepting software projects and 
software documentation projects in Savannah.
"""

Pat's original post mentioned that the original "How to Think Like a 
Computer Scientist" was licensed under the GFDL (the GNU Free 
Documentation License). If the site maintainers consider the terms "... 
software documentation projects ..." flexible enough to include a 
project like this one, I don't think the license should be an issue.
