If the statement in question is still the same “Joint statement on the GNU 
Project” [0], then yes, Iʼm afraid, you are.  Absolutely nothing in it implies 
that it should be signed by GNU maintainers exclusively, in fact, it is started 
with “We, the undersigned GNU maintainers and developers...” and quite a few of 
the signers are not GNU maintainers.  And one — Joshua Gay — does not seem to 
be a developer either.
