The DCO issue is addressable by a CI bot that tells you off for screwing 
that up, and then abandoning the idea that the maintainer who commits it 
has to add their own SOB. Though there are other cases where maintainers 
want to fix up commit messages or minor fixes during merge which aren't 
as practical with GitHub.

The bigger issue to me is that I think it's best if the project has one 
path for submitting patches. It may be better to be all-or-nothing and 
switch to GitHub completely if it suits our needs, I'm less keen on 
having 70% of patches go through the mailing list and 30% go through GitHub.
