But did the code only get assigned by that assignment when it was actually submitted to the FSF by Apple, rather than simply by being created and published? My understanding for GCC was that anything on the 4.0-based branch in the FSF repository was assigned by virtue of being committed to that repository, but the 4.2-based sources weren't (hence, in particular, implementation of blocks for GCC would need either something to be done about assignment of the 4.2-based code from Apple, or a complete reimplementation; cf ) - and that it was generically the case for such assignments that changes became assigned at the point where they were submitted by or with the consent of the previous owner. -- Joseph S.
