Matt, have you ever thought of going to law school? I think your synopsis would suffice for a term paper in copyright law ;-) To aid your effort, how about setting up a survey/poll: * Would you allow the LinuxCNC/EMC board to define/re-license your prior contributions as part of their licensing cleanup efforts? * If not, please explain and identify what code you wish to remain under a different copyright. There are other questions that people could hash over (such as which licenses, etc.), but at least then we get as many respondents and then can see who else needs to be gotten ahold of... As a note, you are welcome to do whatever you choose with what little I have contributed to EMC. When breaking out the libraries I prefer LGPL type licenses so that the libraries can be use in places where the main programs cannot be released but any additions/fixes to the libraries are expected to be given back to the community.
