If the extension is relicensed to the PHP license and Copyright
assigned to The PHP Group, then every problem goes away in the
simplest and least uncertain way possible.

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.
