I am not familiar enough with the code to comment, but from a process standpoint, Roman could remove the copyright statements before submitting, if that is what he / Agimatec wanted to do. In any case, once granted, existing committers could work with the code and Roman could submit patches. We have done this several times in Commons: contributors who are not committers grant code, then earn merit in the normal way by submitting patches and contributing on the mailing lists.
