#GCC does away with the requirement for copyright assignments to the FSF:

I think it’s a wise decision in this day and age. 👍
@iron_bug What you describe has little to do with FSF copyright assignment IMO.
To downstream #GCC users, this move open to the sort of legal litigations that affect the #Linux kernel (usually settled out of court, for money).
But what I love about it is the double-thinking of the supporters that few weeks ago were crying about the lack of transparency in #FSF gevernment.
This change has been announced by the Steering Committee to the GCC community without discussion.
A Steering Committe in the hands of few USA corporations.
But it's all fine, isn't it?
