Has anyone taken up the banner for this issue?  I hate to be a finger
pointer, but since this may involve discussion with Red Hat's legal
department, we outside folks may not be able to handle it.  I'm sorry I

back to earlier discussions, it seems there's a LOT of interest in
fixing this situation.
