As already stated. He’s able to do that because these people have also signed 
a separate Copyright Assignment with which they assigned their copyright to 
directly to Kern.

Please do not confuse the FLA that people have signed with FSFE and the CA 
that they signed with Kern (that happens to bear the name “FLA”).

Rest assured we’re working hard on fixing this situation.

If you have any internal information I should be aware of, please do let me 
know.
