I'd argue such a barrier is OK if we want to quickly increase the size of the 
team of people with commit access. I think we're underestimating our 
contributors here. I agree that we shouldn't have unnecessary barriers (such as 
copyright assignment to give a specific example).

I am getting mixed signals here though. Some people say requiring signing 
causes friction and limits participation. Others say that there will only be a 
couple of people who will ever have commit access so signing is unnecessary.

I don't want to take too much time here because signing commits is a lower 
priority compared to doing the actual work of writing code/documentation 
(including a wiki), increasing/maintaining test coverage, and setting up 
automatic signed builds and so on (being discussed in separate threads).

I don't think there's a definite right or wrong answer here as long as we 
understand and accept the trade offs.

Sincerely,
