I know that many years ago I did sign a snail mail form for the FSF, but I don't remember which project it was for, sorry. I'm happy to do that (again) for Emacs, though I do have to point out (and I did that back then as well IIRC) that as a German citizen, my copyright can technically never be assigned no matter what forms I sign [1]. It would, to my understanding, at most count as granting of all-encompassing exclusive usage rights.
