+### Copyright issues
+Since **ztree** is a part of [GNU ELPA](https://elpa.gnu.org/), it is 
copyrighted by the [Free Software Foundation, Inc.](http://www.fsf.org/). 
Therefore in order to submit nontrivial changes (with total amount of lines >

FSF.
+
+For this you need to complete 
[this](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/fourier/ztree/contributions/request-assign.txt)
 form, and send it to address@hidden(mailto:address@hidden). The FSF will send 
you the assignment contract that both you and the FSF will sign.

+For more information one can read [here](www.gnu.org/licenses/why-assign.html) 
to understand why it is needed.
+
+As soon as the paperwork is done one can contribute to **ztree** with bigger 
pull requests.
+Note what pull requests without paperwork done will not be accepted, so please 
notify the maintainer ([Alexey Veretennikov](mailto:address@hidden)) if 
everything is in place.
