Re: Copyright assignment wiki page

Moreover, our contribute page says "the GCC maintainer that is taking care of your contributions" and there is no documentation to maintainers, so that part at least is wrong: maintainers don't know what to do. Or else, I just didn't receive the maintainer welcome package including the appropriate documentation :)

The FSF defines maintainer a bit differently than the gcc project. In the FSF view, the GCC SC is the maintainer of GCC, and no one else.

Then I suggest changing our contribute page from
contact us (either via the gcc@gcc.gnu.org list or the GCC maintainer that is taking care of your contributions) to obtain the relevant forms

to
contact us (either via the gcc@gcc.gnu.org list or a GCC Steering Commitee member) to obtain the relevant forms


to reflect this.
