bazaar-ng copyright policy

Hi,

It has been proposed that we should keep all of the bazaar-ng code
copyright by a single entity, as is done by Python, Zope and Apache.
That entity will be Canonical Ltd, which has committed to make the
project always remain free.  This allows actions down the track such as
adding licence exceptions to link to other code or legal defense without
having to chase down all the original authors.  To effect this we will
need to ask for a copyright assignment note in gpg-signed email with
nontrivial patches (say >15 lines).  Does this sound reasonable?
