Jake,

Thanks for the clarification. I will try to get the permissions from the
authors.

What is regarded as sufficient? Is an email from the author, granting
me/SciPy to distribute their code with a specific, BSD-style license
sufficient? Or do they necessarily have to change the websites where
they host the code to include the license?

An email stating that the code can be distributed under a BSD license  (or MIT or other compatible license) is enough.
