Getting papers from others is a burden. Most code these days live
on GitHub where it's very easy to submit and merge pull requests.

If a package needs assignment then the maintainer cannot accept code until
the copyright is assigned which is an administrative hoop which nor the
maintainer, nor the submitter may want to deal with.
