Serious question: does anyone know if it requires Canonical's copyright assignment to contribute to lightDM? If yes we can stop any further discussion right here IMHO. There are of course more issues to think about when considering using something in our workspace that's developed by Canonical. What about we need changes Canonical does not like for what reason ever? Who of us can work with launchpad and bazaar? It's not the environment we are used to work with (same true for GNOME devs who want to participate in development). Personal opinion: if Canonical wants other to use it as real cross-desktop, the first step should be move the code into freedesktop's git repository.
