GNU copyright assignment request form

Background

Mailman is a GNU project with the majority of the copyrights being held by the Free Software Foundation. We therefore request that developers who contribute code assign their copyrights in their Mailman contribution to the FSF. To do this, you first need to submit (by email) a request form (see below) containing some basic information, and then fill out the form that the FSF sends you. Please let us know after you've sent the second form so that we can track your contribution. The FSF often doesn't tell us in a timely manner when such forms have been received.

Request form

Please email the following information to fsf-records@gnu.org and CC us, and we will send you the assignment form for your past and future changes. Please use your full name as the subject line of the message.
