Lightdm is NOT a Canonical project, it is developed by Robert Ancell
and as far as I know there's no CLA to sign. (I haven't contributed to
the project yet) From the very few moments I spoke to Robert I'd say
working with him is really nice and there won't be problems.
Regarding the Canonical-CLA-issue: I also had my bad experiences with
this, so please, please, never do anything like this in KDE (again)!
But for LightDM I have no objections, +1 from me for this!
(btw, I agree with Sune: One display manager is enough. But we could
do a "transition phase" where both DMs are present. I'd also like to
hear what KDM developers think about this.)
Cheers,
