Every time I see someone send a patch to a gcc mailing list, get a reply saying "you must submit a copyright assignment first", and then see that person actually come back a few weeks later saying they did it, I am quite surprised. But, I'm surprised more often than not -- it seems like most people approaching GCC actually do go ahead and do the annoying administrative work required for their submission to be accepted.

Nowadays a lot of companies have blanket copyright assignments for GNU.
