Does the FSFE version works for emacs
(https://fsfe.org/activities/ftf/fla.en.html)? Because it seems to be
adapted to legal systems outside of the USA. I had a look at the French
version and they explicitly mention that they make this version because
in France transferring copyright is impossible (you may just give
exploitation rights).

Best,
