The Free Software Foundation has a 20-hour/week position for a "Copyright

       paperwork.

     * explaining rules set by FSF's General Counsel's office for
       employer disclaimers for copyright assignments.

     * diligent and careful filing, archiving, and recording of all the
       Foundation's copyright assignment data (both electronic and paper).

       exclusively, email clients and web browsers.

     * proper coordination with and escalation other FSF staff and legal
       counsel when clarification on legal points are needed.

Experience with GNU/Linux systems, or as legal support staff is a plus,
but not required.  Law students are particularly encouraged to apply.
