Thanks for bringing this up. I had circulated the start of a proposal on this a year ago: http://dev.gentoo.org/~rich0/copyrightpolicy.xml We didn't really take it further, but instituting just the DCO component of this policy using git signed-off-by lines should be fairly non-controversial. The FLA probably needs some review/etc but the intent was for that to be optional. The DCO is based on the linux DCO. -- Rich
