A few thoughts:
- IANAL...
- I don't think it means Nene is under RWPCL, only that perhaps it should be, and that you are risking a lawsuit from Jamougha by breaking the license. =)
- I'm almost certain you can rewrite the RWPCL parts and then be free of the viral licensing obligations.
- Code can definitely exist under multiple, totally different licenses.
- If Rednaxela already released his kd-tree under zlib, then someone releases a bot with his kd-tree and Raiko's RWPCL gun, it couldn't possibly retroactively make his kd-tree RWPCL.
- Some code would never hold up to scrutiny in terms of copyright infringement - I wouldn't worry about things like absoluteBearing, project, and lots of other trivial stuff. I've read that you probably couldn't copyright a tweet, and these are far less content than that.
