How will I know when they have arrived?

I posted it on monday oct 13 2003 and it was sent airmail, in the "return" envolope that came 
with the documents (the one with the FSF address on it)
I was quoted a delivery time of 4-6 work days from one source and a quote of 7 days (dont 
know if that was 7 work days or not) from another source.

The GCC project has no control over the airmail.

Nor do we have anything to do with the assignment paperwork itself.
It's all handled by the FSF.  If you have questions, please contact them.

You will receive an e-mail from the FSF copyright clerk, at least that's
my experience from other recent assignments.

Hey, I'd like to submit some patches to gcj (gcc java frontend) as
well as libjava (gcc java companion library). Could you please send me
the requisite paperwork so I can assign my copyrights to the FSF?

Also, I am developing some other software (totally unrelated to GCC)
and releasing it under the GPL, however, I must retain copyright on
that software. Anyways, I just want to make sure that the paperwork
makes it clear that only my contributions to FSF-owned projects will
be reassigned.

Thanks!

Yes, as far as I know.

(Sorry for the delay, I've been offline last week.)
