It's still a good idea, as I'm not sure what issues may come up about

Putting aside all the other reasons why I think requiring copyright
assignment now is a really bad idea:
1. What instance of troubles are you referring to, specifically?
2. How would a dubious copyright assignment give you any more security
than licensing a contribution under Boost?
Also note that systematically requiring copyright assignment before
merging a change on GitHub is not something we are currently doing. I
was just not sure whether it is something you want to start doing.
