If you remove the contributor's contributions from your project, then
you can proceed without his permission. Otherwise, Chris and Leam are
correct.

You could replace all the contributor's code with your own code.  This
is a bit tricky as you've seen the contributor's code.  One way around
this is to tell someone what the contributor's patch did, and have them
recreate it, without looking at that person's patch.
