It appears the requester was incorrect and should have requested that
you *also* assign copyright to GTI. This would leave both GTI and
yourself as copyright holders on the ebuild, allowing both parties to
uphold their stake in the ebuild, while not allowing GTI sole control of
your intellectual property.
