Ulf, there is a serious problem with your binutils contributions: lddigest.c: "Copyright (C) 1991-2023 Ulf Samuelsson ". According to https://www.gnu.org/prep/maintain/maintain.html#Legal-Matters I as a maintainer of a GNU package need to ensure certain steps are taken with legally significant contributions. I can't see Ulf Samuelsson listed on the current GNU copyright list, and I don't recall seeing an email from the FSF copyright clerk saying that Ulf had assigned or disclaimed copyright. So unless I've missed something, all of the crc/digest/ascii code should be reverted from binutils until copyright papers are signed. Nick agrees. I'm sorry we didn't sort this out earlier, but once that has been done they can be reapplied. You can start the copyright process by looking at doc/Copyright/ in current gnulib, and filling out the most appropriate, probably request-assign.future. The FSF will then send you their copyright assignment forms. I'm not certain about files like ldcrc64.c with the MIT license. They likely are OK as is, since we have other examples with similar license in binutils under gprof/ and libiberty/. Please discuss that detail with the FSF. -- Alan Modra Australia Development Lab, IBM
