Yes, it is. fetchmail moved there in 2004 already, with the consent of
its original maintainer, Eric S. Raymond.

I, as one of the two currently active upstream maintainers, asked that
pkg-descr be updated to the BerliOS site so that users see the right
place.

No, it should not.

fetchmail maintainership was officially handed over to Rob Funk (Cc:d),
Graham Wilson and myself in 2004, and Rob set up the the new project's
home at BerliOS.de.

Eric S. Raymond (Cc:d) simply hasn't gotten around to update his
fetchmail site to refer users to the new location.
