EMACS/GNUS is the exact wording in copyright.list on fencepost without clear definitions what that actually means. But from other entries you can guess that notation means PROJECT/SUBPROJECT or PROJECT/FILE, and the assignments then only cover the mentioned subproject. For example, there are also CAs for EMACS/CALC and EMACS/CEDET, EMACS/EMACS_MANUAL,EMACS/ELISP_MANUAL, and EMACS/HASHCASH.EL. > When I send instructions to contributors for projects on GNU ELPA, I > recommend assigning copyright for "Emacs", not for "xxx, which is also > a part of Emacs". Those are perfectly usable for different > subprojects, too. Yes, but the CA I've seen first when looking for Magnus is only for Gnus which would not work for contributions to Emacs which are not in Gnus. But as Michael already mentioned, Magnus has also younger CA for Emacs. Bye, Tassilo
