He can't assign copyright to the FSF since it involves some code which is
not his, least of all the Berkeley DB code which it uses. But it also
includes a fair amount of "ht://Dig code" from the htlib/ directory.

My understanding is that RMS didn't care much--it fills a need and it's
mostly under the GPL.

Sure. We'll see what happens. I'd be interested in any legal opinion about
the "ht://Dig Group" issue since there's currently no obvious "owner" of
all of the ht://Dig code.
