copyright assignment paperwork

Hi all,

Per section 54.2 of the Emacs manual (
https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/emacs/Copyright-Assignment.html),
I'd like the forms I need to fill out for FSF copyright assignment to make
contributions to Emacs.

Can someone send those to me?

I've seen mention of potentially needing a work-for-hire disclaimer from
employers - how do I know if I'll need one?

-Nate
