Reassignment is different than adding a license or providing the material under 
an additional/different license.

Reassignment is about copyright.  Let's not go there.

Still, offering a license from a multiple-author work does raise issues about 
the arrangement among those authors and how such things as assignment and 
licensing are arrived at.  That's whatever the arrangement is and what it 
allows.  I have nothing to say about any matter of that sort.

I disagree. Dennis has covered well in various notes the situation
with including the Apache license in a dual license arrangement.
