Anyway, the basic question is whether this is something that makes sense for core.
IMHO, yes. However, my vision is obscured by the fact that I maintain a module that does a fair bit of date-based logic (signup). Actually, now that I think about it, there's date logic in many of my modules (update_status, project_issue, project, project_release, etc). Given how prevalent dates are in the universe, I'd say this belongs in core.
And my original question -- does anyone know exactly how I should attribute the original authors and licenses in my Drupalized version?
Sorry, I don't know. When in doubt, I'd start with including the entire copyright notice and license text, as is, and then add something to the bottom about "Relicensed under the terms of the GPL and modified for the Drupal code base by KarenS ...". Others may have better ideas. -Derek
