Thank you. I had assumed that the old Mach code was grandfathered in, and that the FSF would require copyright assignments for any new additions. I now see that the files under xen/public/ were added with non-FSF copyright notices in 2009. What does the FSF require for GNU Mach patches, then? A license grant and a signed employer disclaimer, perhaps? I assume a dual license under GPLv2-or-later and the "MIT License" (the same terms as in xen/public/COPYING) would be acceptable. (Unlike the BSD licenses, this one does not distinguish between source code and binary.) Does the same policy apply to MIG as well?
