Please understand that the previous lines don't mean that we don't want 
the FSF to be the copyright holder. On the contrary, we really would 
prefer the FSF be the copyright holder. But given Karl point I tried to
say that in the case the FSF isn't the copyright holder and/or doesn't want 
to be the copyright holder it would be nice if the FSF transfered formally 
the copyright to somebody else interested in the project.
