FYI, I have completed my review and the result can be found in the *.copyright files available in the patch at : http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/p/phpgroupware/phpgroupware_0.9.16.012+dfsg-1.diff.gz
In short, for licenses, phpgwapi = LGPL + bits of GPL rest is GPL with bits of LGPL, and sometimes MPL, or BSD may be found locally...
