If we can track down all contributors to php-mode, it would be good to

PHP is a major language, so I think it should be included in the Emacs
distribution, ideally.
Maybe that can also be done afterwards. We'll cross this bridge when we
get there. But for now the GNU ELPA is open for new features whereas
the trunk isn't.
After following this for quite some time I wonder if it is not much
less work to just rewrite php-mode.el from scratch than to try to get
copyright assignment from all authors? (Those parts that are made by
authors who have signed papers can be copied. Some parts are trivial
and can therefor be copied. Etc.)
