Dear Ken and Ricardo,
One option is to ask new contributions to be dual licensed (current and
desired). So if CMU changes their policy, it won't be necessary to ask
permission to all the recent contributors.
This is what we did to change the Bootstrap license (needing to get
approval from hundreds of contributors)

Best regards,
Marc

Is there any progress on the relicensing for cyrus-sasl? There are a
number of pending fixes, some are important, and certainly behoove a
new release, but without a working contribution process and license,
we're stuck.
Unfortunately, CMU is unwilling to re-license at this time. I don't
recall the reason, if any, but this is what I was told by a former
colleague.
So, any new contributions will have to be governed by the current
license for the foreseeable future.
