If OIN decides to include something like libmad it would be a failure on the part of OIN as well as Red Hat as a member organization. If we are going to doing additional cross checking beyond the OIN list we can but we need to be clear whether we trust the OIN process which we did for mono to help in the decision of including/not including NTFS in Fedora.
