Would it be easier for you to change antcontrib so it ships as an ANTLIB, and then just get an agreement on ANT shipping a binary distribution?
There would be no copyright involved in that case (since we are talking about binaries). With that the only detail in ANTCORE would be whether we try to autoload this tasks at startup or the user needs to enable them. It seems like a good solution to me, this code is very stable and has not change in a long time.
