Oskar, do you want to file a glibc bug report for your iconvme changes, and include the patch? Be sure to mention gnulib. I can do it if it is troublesome for you, but not before Tuesday.Hmm, another problem. I've signed a copyright assignment for Gnulib, but not for GNU libc. I guess that needs to be signed as well first?I don't know, I don't think that would be required, although I admit it is unclear. The files are shared among several projects, so papers for one ought to be sufficient me thinks. Others? Iconvme originate from GNU Libidn, but you haven't signed assignment for that either, and requiruing that seem too much.
If everyone that contributes code to gnulib has to do the paperwork
for every other GNU project that might import and redistribute that
code, the paperwork would fast become completely unmanagable. There
is at least an implied agreement that gnulib contributions can be
used elsewhere... otherwise gnulib is effectively useless.
IMHO.
Cheers,
Gary.
