The changes to mountlist.c (which is in gnulib, by the way) are large enough that Frank has to follow the process described in coreutils contribution guidelines: http://git.sv.gnu.org/cgit/coreutils.git/plain/HACKING Copyright assignment ==================== If your change is significant (i.e., if it adds more than ~10 lines), then you'll have to have a copyright assignment on file with the FSF. Since that involves first an email exchange between you and the FSF, and then the exchange (FSF to you, then back) of an actual sheet of paper with your signature on it, and finally, some administrative processing in Boston, the process can take a few weeks. The forms to choose from are in gnulib's doc/Copyright/ directory. If you want to assign a single change, you should use the file, doc/Copyright/request-assign.changes: http://git.sv.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=gnulib.git;a=blob;f=doc/Copyright/request-as sign.changes;hb=HEAD If you would like to assign past and future contributions to a project, you'd use doc/Copyright/request-assign.future: http://git.sv.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=gnulib.git;a=blob;f=doc/Copyright/request-as sign.future;hb=HEAD You may make assignments for up to four projects at a time. In case you're wondering why we bother with all of this, read this: http://www.gnu.org/licenses/why-assign.html Once that's done, and you get email'd confirmation from the FSF that they've received the signed forms, please ping the list. _______________________________________________ Bug-coreutils mailing list Bug-coreutils@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-coreutils
