I have done a copyright assignment before, although I don't remember if
it was general or for a specific thing (you might search for
mouse-extras.el) or mouse-drag.el.  If you're concerned, I should
probably re-do one for the notes-mode package.

All external contributions were off the one-line, no-copyright-needed
variety.
