Ah, you're right! from
https://sfconservancy.org/news/2022/may/02/conservancy-launches-copyright-assignment-system
"The self-service system enables developers to entrust their copyrights

That's what I mentioned in the above previous email.
Some emacs-debbugs contributors have expressed an interest in adding in my

:)
Which thanks to Maxime, I now know that I have to email the FSF!
Also thanks for the reminder Maxime. I am adding Lars to the email chain.
He's a co-author of debbugs I believe.
