I’m considering this issue RC.
IEContentAnalyzer is non-free actually. "It

Right. Tim Starling, you claim copyright on that file. Can you
please confirm which DFSG-free Open Source™ licence(s) we can
use and distribute that file under?

I’ve got more:
IEUrlExtension.php does not have any licence at all. Is it safe
to assume it’s GPLv2+ as “all of the rest of MediaWiki”?

I’ll be removing IEContentAnalyzer.php and IEUrlExtension.php
from MediaWiki in Debian within this month if I do not get
any positive feedback or a good reason to delay this.

Yes, it is safe to assume that the code would be GPLv2+ just as the rest
of mediawiki.
Code by Tim Starling is available under any OSI license:

As he is the main author of IEContentAnalyzer.php and IEUrlExtension.php
that should clear their issue.
