Hello,
it seems I need to commit patches for other people from time to time.
To do that, I need to check whether they have signed the copyright
papers. I searched a long time for where I can check that. I did find
nothing in the Emacs sources. I quickly had a look at the savannah
pages, but didn't find something. Then I used internet search, and the
only hint I found was in:
https://www.gnu.org/prep/maintain/html_node/Copyright-Papers.html
| To check whether papers have been received, look in
| /gd/gnuorg/copyright.list. If you can’t look there directly,
| address@hidden can check for you. Our clerk can also check for
| papers that are waiting to be entered and inform you when expected
| papers arrive.
I don't understand the "look in /gd/gnuorg/copyright.list" part - what
does that mean? I tried to visit
https://www.gnu.org/gd/gnuorg/copyright.list
but got 404.
How to do it right? And finally: was my searching too dumb, or is this
information really not that easy to find?
Thanks,
Michael.
