Litigation works the other way, too. Someone could sue Digital Mars over the code.
Are you suggesting that, when requiring copyright assignment, Digital Mars would in fact protect the contributors from lawsuits over copyright infringement? This is not the case. The original contributor of the piece of code could still be held liable by Digital Mars, because as part of signing the copyright transfer agreement they claimed that the code is theirs.
