I was thinking more for after the git migration and we have a DCO. A big part of what was holding me back from pushing more on the new policy is the fact that the bookkeeping looks potentially onerous. If we could simplify things and be compliant and just have a simple DCO and optional FLA, then there isn't a lot holding us back besides git (and maybe we can find a way around that if we're desperate). -- Rich
