Hi Rich, Are you sure you need that? Did you see this? http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lib.gnulib.bugs/16682/focus=16693 ---------- Date: Fri, 20 Feb 2009 18:34:01 -0600 Message-Id: <200902210034.n1l0y1z02...@f7.net> From: k...@freefriends.org (Karl Berry) ... Well, I'm not from the FSF, but I can confirm it anyway, since that is exactly what I just asked the copyright-clerk :). As long as the work was done as an employee rather than on your own time, RH's global assignment covers you and no separate papers are necessary.
