Grafana, Loki, and Tempo will be relicensed to AGPLv3

Does clause (d) allow the project to relicense its code? Because as far as I understand, that is the reason that GNU tends to have CLAs on their projects.

I'm no expert in these things, but here's my understanding.

AFAIK, it's up to copyright assignment for re-licensing.

For example, contributing to Prometheus assigns all copyright to "The Prometheus Authors". The DCO just attests that it's OK to do this.

So, I don't think there's anything for or against re-licensing in DCO, it's just out of scope.
