Censorship doesn’t work since you circumvent it by using several mail and even setting up another mailing list. So nope, you still weakening it yourself, even without censorship (because you were weakening it before censorship happened, and even whene there wasn’t), or without working censorship.

I didn’t sign anything. And my copyright is still on it. That quite surprised myself. This sounds unpractical (what if the original gets slightly updated?).

The most officials examples I see are given on gnu.org/s and doesn’t mention apache but does TeX (which to me is very important as it’s also a base for texinfo, the official GNU documentation tool).
