As I remember, you've solved the copyright assignment issues for BBDB,
with BBDB 3.x. Have you given any thought to packaging it in GNU ELPA,
or proposing it for inclusion in Emacs itself? Then installation would
be smoother or unnecessary. Including BBDB in Emacs would have the
extra benefit of satisfying other large packages' dependencies on BBDB
(e.g., Gnus, EUDC, Org) directly.
