IF you have written something you would like to contribute to the GNU Emacs distribution, and you would like it to be covered by the standard terms for GNU Emacs redistribution ... then please include a copyright notice when you post it or distribute it yourself! A copyright notice consists of at least the word "Copyright", the year, and your name. Just telling people to refer to the General Public License is not enough.
