Joachim, how are we doing on bandwidth usage? Is it growing, decreasing, about the same? What measure should we be looking at to keep an eye on the situation? I am sure lots of people really appreciate your hosting this site for free. I'm of course one of them!

+I have [the statistics](http://hurd.gnufans.org/webalizer/) under observation and thus far it looks very good. There really isn't much traffic at all, [compared to](http://vmlinux.org/webalizer/) the machine we host gnufans.org on. One tenth of the traffic to vmlinux.org.
+
+Occasionally I talk to one of the guys at [QuickNet](http://www.quicknet.se) about the hosting and our (vmlinux.org's) bandwidth usage. He has assured me that there is no problem at all, in fact, they have increased the overall capacity of their hosting capabilites, so now our traffic is no more than a drop in the ocean to them. :)
+
+I'll keep you (all) informed if there is any change in status of the hosting.
+
+Furthermore, I've been looking into the copyright assignment issues we talked about a while ago now. It seems RMS is right. At least in Sweden transfer of copyright can be made by a user in the way he descibed in the email conversation we had. The provision is that the user must **_actively_** select a checkbox or similar which says something like:
+
+* _"I hereby assign the copyrights of my work to the FSF"_
+
+This means that the copyright is also owned by the FSF, the original author can never lose his rights to a work. The copyright assignment is useful when there is a license violation, bacause then the FSF can fight on behalf of the copyright owners without having to ask them all.
+
+Well, this post somewhat "nullifies" many of the claims made at the beginning of this topic. Maybe I should refactor it a bit to better suit the current circumstances?
