Hello John,
Based on your suggestion, I filled [the assignment request form] and
sent it to assign@gnu.org last week.
But I have not received any feedback until today. I want to check the
status.
What should I do?
Is it possible to submit my driver before finishing [process of
copyright assignment]?
Thank you in advance for your reply.
Regards,
David J. Choi

Firstly, thank you for your interest in contributing to the eCos
project.
The basic procedure for contributing code is described at:
http://ecos.sourceware.org/contrib.html
Note that all contributions are subject to review and that everyone who
has contributed to the device driver will need to assign copyright to
the Free Software Foundation.
I recommend that you start the process of copyright assignment as soon
as possible as it can take some time to complete. Ref:
http://ecos.sourceware.org/assign.html
When your driver is ready for review, please create a new Bugzilla
report at http://bugs.ecos.sourceware.org and attach your source code to
the Bugzilla report.
