If the above can't be done, we still have options. The BSD license currently on the extension is not, in and of itself, super problematic. The only issue which needs resolving in my mind is addressing the frontier between ext/sodium and the rest of php-src. Code migrating (in either direction) muddies the waters between these parts of the repo and I just don't know what the consequences of that are. Maybe they're nothing. I wanted to move that part of the discussion here in the interest of getting other stakeholders to comment. Particularly those who are formally members of "The PHP Group". Rasmus? Ze'ev? Andi? I think you three are the only ones in that category still active. -Sara
