Update: Six more devs and ex-devs have replied, for a total of 13.
Three of them signed the copyright form; they joined between
December 2003 and June 2004.
Ten of the replies indicated they haven't signed anything. Of these,
two devs joined in November 2003 or before, the others in January 2006
or after,
From your replies and from other sources, the conclusion is
that copyright assignment took place only between December 2003
and June/July 2004. See also [4] for a provisional timeline (mostly
compiled by robbat2).
Thanks to all who have replied!
