+The way to assign copyright on this manual to the Foundation is to
+sign an assignment contract.
+
+In addition, if you have made an agreement with an employer or school
+to give them rights to such work, or if it might be considered part of
+your job, then you and we need a signed piece of paper from your
+employer or school, disclaiming rights to the manual.
+
+The disclaimer should be signed by a vice president or general manager
+of the company. If you can't get at them, anyone else authorized to
+license works produced there will do. Here is a sample wording:
+
+ Digital Stimulation Corporation hereby disclaims all copyright interest
+ in the manual, "The Automatic Manual", written by Mr. Write, including
+ both the present version of the manual and his/her future changes and
+ enhancements to it. We do not consider it or them as a work made
+ for hire for us.
+
+ <signature of Ty Coon>, 1 April 1987
+ Ty Coon, President of Vice, Digital Stimulation Corp.
+
+IMPORTANT: When you talk to your employer, *no matter what
+instructions they have given you*, don't fail to show them the sample
+disclaimer above. Companies are usually willing to sign a disclaimer
+without any fuss. If you vary the request, or make it less specific,
+you are liable to open a Pandora's Box and cause a long and
+unnecessary delay.
+
+Below is the assignment contract that we usually use. You would need
+to print it out, sign it, and snail it to me:

+
+ For $1 and other good and valuable consideration, receipt of which I
+acknowledge, I, NAME OF PERSON, hereby transfer to the Free Software
+Foundation, Inc. (the "Foundation") my entire right, title, and interest
+(including all rights under copyright) in my manual "NAME OF MANUAL" (the
+"Work"), subject to the conditions below. The work hereby assigned shall
+further include any future changes and/or enhancements hereafter made by me.
+
+ Upon thirty days' prior written notice, the Foundation agrees to grant me
+non-exclusive rights to use the Work as I see fit; (and the Foundation's
+rights shall otherwise continue unchanged).
+
+ For the purposes of this contract, a work "based on the Work" means any
+work that in whole or in part incorporates or is derived from all or part of
+the Work.
+
+ The Foundation promises that all distribution of the Work, or of any
+work "based on the Work", that takes place under the control of the
+Foundation or its agents or assignees, shall be on terms that explicitly and
+perpetually permit anyone possessing a copy of the work to which the terms
+apply, and possessing accurate notice of these terms, to redistribute copies

+performed or on any other occasion.
+
+ The Foundation promises that any work "based on the Work" which is
+a program, and which is offered to the public by the Foundation or its
+agents or assignees, shall be offered in the form of machine-readable

+Legal Issues about Contributing Code to GNU last updated 3 Mar 98
+
+Project GNU has to be careful to obey intellectual property laws, even
+though these laws are wrong and people generally should share useful
+information without hesitation, because we are in the public eye.
+
+This means that if you want to contribute software, you have to do
+something to give us legal permission to use it. There are four ways
+this can be done:
+
+* Assign the copyright to the Free Software Foundation.
+This is what we prefer because it allows us to use the copyright law
+to prevent others from hoarding modified versions of the program.
+
+* Keep the copyright yourself and give us a suitable nonexclusive
+license. It will then be up to you to prevent any unauthorized
+hoarding of modified versions; we will be unable to act. (This
+alternative is impractical for us if the use for your work is to be
+merged into a preexisting GNU program.)
+
+* Keep the copyright and release the program yourself under the GNU
+GPL. (This alternative too is impractical for contributions to a
+preexisting GNU program.)
+
+* Put the code in the public domain. Then there is nothing to stop hoarding
+of modified versions, but we can still use the program in GNU.
+
+Most of these alternatives require a signed piece of paper to make it
+happen.
+
+* Assigning copyright.
+
+Assigning the copyright means signing a contract that makes the Free
+Software Foundation the "owner" of the program according to the law.
+As the copyright holder, the Foundation can sue anyone who tries to
+distribute the program as a proprietary product. We are willing to
+keep your name on the program as the author for as long as the program
+remains recognizably distinct. ("Owner" is in quotes to show that we
+don't really believe in this kind of ownership. We are against the
+copyright law, because it is intended to assist information hoarding,
+but since we cannot get it repealed just yet, we use it to stop
+hoarding when we can.)
+
+The assignment contract commits the foundation to setting distribution
+terms that permit free redistribution.
+
+Often we don't want to do the work of starting to distribute a program
+right away. There are many things which we will need in order to have
+a complete system but which aren't really useful until the rest of the
+system is done. But signing the assignment does not stop you from
+distributing the program yourself--as long as you do so under the GNU
+terms. You don't have to wait for us to start distributing. You can
+start distributing as soon as you attach our standard copyleft to the
+files. (Ask for our advice on how to do this.)
+
+The assignment contract we normally use has a clause that permits you
+to use your code in proprietary programs, on 30 days' notice. (The 30
+days' notice is there because, through a legal technicality, it would
+improve our position in a suit against a hoarder.) Although we
+believe that proprietary software is wrong, we include this clause
+because it would serve no purpose to ask you to promise not to do it.
+You're giving us a gift in the first place.
+
+You don't need to invoke this clause in order to distribute copies as
+free software under the GNU GPL, since everyone is allowed to do that.
+
+* Keeping the copyright.
+
+Keeping the copyright and giving the Free Software Foundation a
+nonexclusive license also requires signing a contract. The license we
+need permits us to add our usual distribution terms; it recognizes
+possession of a copy with our distribution terms accurately stated as
+licensing anyone to redistribute on those terms. However, if someone
+violates these terms--for example, if he gets a copy from us, and uses
+it as a basis for a proprietary product in violation of our terms--we
+cannot sue him. You have to sue, or he gets away with it.
+
+The law doesn't recognize the idea that he, by doing this, is stealing
+rights from the public; it thinks that information exists to be
+hoarded and is concerned only with how the spoils are to be divided.
+
+* Releasing it yourself.
+
+You can release a program yourself under copyleft distribution terms
+such as the GNU GPL. (In order to accept the program as GNU software,
+we would have to be happy with your choice of terms.) This does not
+require a contract between you and the FSF, but we would appreciate
+having a signed piece of paper to confirm your decision.
+
+If someone violates your terms--for example, if someone gets a copy
+from us, and uses it as a basis for a proprietary product in violation
+of the terms--we cannot sue him. You would have to sue, or he gets
+away with it.
+
+* Public domain.
+
+If you put the program in the public domain, we prefer to have a signed
+piece of paper--a disclaimer of rights--from you confirming this. If the
+program is not very important, we can do without one; the worst that could
+happen is that we might some day be forced to stop using it.
+
+The law says that anyone can copyright a modified version of the public
+domain work. (This doesn't restrict the original, which remains in the
+public domain; only the changes are copyrighted.) If we make extensive
+changes, we will probably do this and add our usual copyleft. If we make
+small changes, we will leave the version we distribute in the public
+domain.
+
+* What about your employer?
+
+If you are employed to do programming, or have made an agreement with your
+employer that says it owns programs you write, we need a signed piece of
+paper from your employer disclaiming rights to the program. It should be
+signed by a vice president or general manager of the company. If you
+can't get at them, it is almost as good to find someone who signs licenses
+for software that is purchased. Here is a sample wording:
+
+ Digital Stimulation Corporation hereby disclaims all copyright interest
+ in the program "seduce.el" (a program to direct assemblers to make passes
+ at compilers under GNU Emacs) written by Hugh Heffner.
+
+ <signature of Ty Coon>, 1 April 1987
+ Ty Coon, President of Vice, Digital Stimulation Corp.
+
+The description of what the program does is just to make it clearer
+what the disclaimer covers.
+
+If what you did was change an existing program, it should say this:
+
+ ...in the changes and enhancements made by Hugh Heffner to the
+ program "seduce.el".
+
+* Did anyone else contribute?
+
+If someone else contributed more than a few lines here or there to the
+program, then that person too is an author, and that person too needs to
+sign papers just as you do. So may that person's employer. However, if
+his contribution is just a fraction of the whole work, it is satisfactory
+if he disclaims his own rights, even if you are assigning yours. (If just
+the minor contributors' work goes in the public domain, that doesn't leave
+much of a loophole for hoarders.)
+
+If you incorporated packages which you found floating around as "public
+domain", we might still want to track down their authors, to get
+disclaimers to reassure us that they really are in the public domain. So
+keep track of what these packages are and who wrote them.
+
+* A reminder:
+
+In working on a project for GNU, DO NOT study and follow any Unix
+sources or other non-free software that might have any bearing on the
+project. Don't refer to them at all, unless you are forced to for
+non-GNU reasons.
+
+Especially, if you are working on an imitation of a Unix utility, DO
+NOT refer to the source for that utility.
+
+It is not considered a serious problem if you have read Unix sources
+in the past for other purposes, provided you don't copy anything in
+particular from them. But referring to them while you do the work
+could cause us legal problems later.

+I'd like to ask you to sign a disclaimer for the manual, thus putting
+it in the public domain. (For a small manual such as this, it's not
+worth our trying to assert a copyleft.)
+
+ I, <name of person>, hereby disclaim all copyright interest in my
+ manual <manual> which does <one-line desription>.

+ I affirm that I have no other intellectual property interest

+
+If you are employed to do writing (even at a university), or have made
