I believe the right process is to email the following information to
assign@gnu.org and they will send you the assignment form for your "past
and future changes".  Use your full legal name (in ASCII characters) as
the subject line of the message.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
REQUEST: SEND FORM FOR PAST AND FUTURE CHANGES

[What is the name of the program or package you're contributing to?]

[Did you copy any files or text written by someone else in these changes?
Even if that material is free software, we need to know about it.]

[Do you have an employer who might have a basis to claim to own
your changes?  Do you attend a school which might make such a claim?]

[For the copyright registration, what country are you a citizen of?]

[What year were you born?]

[Please write your email address here.]

[Please write your postal address here.]

[Which files have you changed so far, and which new files have you written
so far?]

I find the form quite a bit strange since it asks people about stuff
they already changed when without a copyright assignment they could not
have changed anything, but well...
