Is this really necessary? There's already a copyright assignment
clerk at the FSF who does this job. I've received my papers within
four working days, and some of these are due to the postal services
involved.
I guess this delay is acceptable, and if non-FSF forms are used, we'd
probably face an increase in the time required to process the signed
assignment contract form, so even if we could spare one or two days,
this wouldn't result in a net win in the end.
