The FSF most certainly does require assigning copyrights to them for any substantial modifications to all GNU projects. Not every set of files under GPL is a "GNU project"...

Copyright Assignment / Sharing Posted Mar 8, 2008 1:32 UTC (Sat) by atai (subscriber, #10977) [Link] I know what I talk about. I am a GNU maintainer. But I will use a large GNU project as an example.GNU Telephony, for example, has its sources copyrighted by David Sugar, Open Source Telecom Corp, etc., to name a few. No where does the FSF require copyright assignment for this project. Contributions need to be under the same license as the rest of the project (GPL v2, v3, etc.) but that is not copyright assignment.
