I don't see what the problem is, anyway.  The AFL is a permissive,
noncopyleft license, and sublicensable.  That specifically means that
roundup can apply any license it likes to the whole, subject to a one
time change in COPYING.  Something similar was already done for
PageTemplates (actually, that's more than is required for the AFL).

Furthermore, if openid2rp is distributed without change, and not
copied into roundup, absolutely no license obligations are created at
all.  See http://www.rosenlaw.com/OSL3.0-explained.pdf, p. 7.
