In maintain.texi it says:
For large changes, ask the contributor for an assignment. Send per a
copy of the file @file{request-assign.changes}. (Like all the
@samp{request-} files, it is in @file{/gd/gnuorg/Copyright} and in
@code{gnulib}.)
But on Fencepost, we have two directories -- one called
/gd/gnuorg/copyright and one called /gd/gnuorg/Copyright. The lower
case variant contains the actual agreement, while the capitalized one
contains the request. This has caused my confusion on a few
occasions, is there anything we could do to make this slightly
clearer?
What about moving everything to ~gnuorg/Copyright/, which is the
directory mentioned in the standards?
The only drawback I see with that is that maintainers can get confused
as to which document to use. The agreements are for the FSF to send
out, and I don't know if anyone at the FSF has some hardcoded names
pointing to the lower-case variant?
