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.
