I’m considering this issue RC.

CSSMin.php is Apache 2.0 License
This is GPLv3+ compatible whereas the rest is GPLv2+ or compatible, which means this should be not an issue, except for needing to document that in debian/copyright. Please correct me if I’m wrong.
IEContentAnalyzer is non-free actually. "It may be redistributed without restriction" is missing some things we require for main.
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?
JavaScriptMinifier.php is Apache,MIT,GPL,LGPL - and so falls under GPL, but it wouldnt be bad to list the options it offers for users looking into the copyright file. While you modify it anyways. :)
jsminplus is MPL1.1 or GPL or LGPL. Please list, for completness.
Aye. These weren’t an issue for the mediawiki package before the split (which I still don’t agree with but will only passively oppose).
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”?
HttpStatus.php has no complaints ;-) it’s not code and certainly not copyrightable.
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.
