I have applied for an assignment a bit over two years ago now.
Unfortunately, the problem which stopped it from going through still
persists to date, namely that the university in which I am a student
(which is based in EU if that helps) refuses to sign the copyright
disclaimer - or more specifically that I cannot get a response from the
legal department to begin with.  Craig has previously reached out on my
behalf as well, but as far as I am aware they have similarly not had
much success.

The only way forward that I can see is a. do not consider them a
possibly claimant to my work an forgo the copyright disclaimer or
b. wait a year after which I will (hopefully) graduate and hope that the
university I go to for my post-grad is more open to communication.  I do
not believe that b. is bound to see much success, but I do also do not
know if a. is a viable option for the FSF.
