> a DCO is an affirmation that a certain person confirms that it is (s)he who holds legal liability for the act of sending of the code

has this ever been tested in court? ie you can release copyright code and just let them sue the developer instead? Linux foundation or whoever claims ownership of the code basically unless they get sued for it breaching copyright, in which case speak to the developer cos its his again!
