it seems to me the ZF should consider having a lawyer check the legal
implications of dealing with github instead of just stating again and
again that the situation is not clear (and therefore they cannot do
anything). as it looks the 1.6.1 release has already been made from
github, and under the ZPL. if i understand jens correctly this
shouldn't even be possible…
IIUC Jens' valid concern is that non-contributors have contributed to
"the work", making legal ownership unclear. Reverting my commit won't
fix this (or at least I don't understand fully how or why reverting my
commit offers us any legal protection, which seems to be the concern).
IMHO we need to get Domen Kožar to sign the contributor agreement, and
finish the discussion on the "code ownership" list about how to move
forward.
