Dear All, Sorry to disturb uninterested people with following information
For information (and for future reference) my employing organisation CEA http://www.cea.fr/ "Commissariat a l'Energie Atomique, a French state-owned research entity with a scientific, technical, and industrial activity duly organized under the laws of France, ....", has signed an assignment of copyright in the GNU Compiler Collection The copyright assignment (signed on november 20th 2006 by R.Cammoun, Director of CEA-LIST) has reference RT306238 ; in my understanding (but I am not a lawyer) it could be applicable to any of the 14,910 employees of CEA who is or will submitting patches to GCC. I apologize for sending this here, but I thought that it could be the place to tell this, and it could interest (now or in the future) some distant CEA collegues (CEA is big enough for that) that I do not know and cannot reach otherwise. BTW, I am surprised that it is not easy to know which organizations exactly has signed such legal papers. It could happen (in big organizations) that such an assignment has been signed, and a putative minor contributor to GCC does not know about it yet.
