The plan would be to remove all his contributions.

Where some essential functionality goes, I imagine the person doing
the removing would have to describe what the removed code did in
general terms, then someone else would have to re-implement it
independently. Annoying, but not insurmountable.

I wish KR would just tell us if he is unable to assign copyright, or
if it is going to take a long time to do so (I can imagine some
employment situations causing either of these scenarios). Then we
could get on with plan B.
