I'm confused. You said RMS may be the only one who considers GNOME a GNU project. OTOH, RMS is known to be very strict about copyright assignments etc. How does that fit? And I don't suppose RMS wrote the gnome.org web site that says so, either ...
Copyright assignments are not required for all GNU projects, as Alfred explained. See for example GNU Freetalk and a lot of others. And no, RMS is not the only one that considers GNOME a GNU project (although many GNOME contributors don't share our philosophy -- but that's not a requirement for a GNU maintainer either).
