I think it depends.  NetBSD's AI policy mentions the responsibility of the
committers:

https://www.netbsd.org/developers/commit-guidelines.html


Gentoo mentions the contributors:

The latter is quite common in CLAs in general.  Also, for a very long
time PyPI had a policy that put the entire responsibility for complying
with U.S. cryptography export regulations on the uploader, no matter
where the uploader was from.


I was told in no uncertain terms that this policy was just and that
it would protect the PSF (protection of uploaders was not a concern).
