* '''UPDATE 2008-09-23'''
** RESOLUTIONS
*# Fedora will '''only''' handle packages with EULAs through
<code>PackageKit</code>
*# Fedora does not foresee ever having packages in the official Fedora
repos that contain EULAs
** Remaining questions for follow-up:
*# What is the regular work flow for codecs in F10 when someone goes to
play a media file with a gstreamer enabled player?
*# What will be the default behavior for a default installation?
*# Can we confirm that we are no longer prompting for any specific vendor?
** Spot to track down answers to the remaining questions
* '''UPDATE 2008-09-30''' from Spot
** In a default, fresh F10 install, if you go to play an mp3 file with a
gstreamer enabled player, it will pop-up a helper
** On a default F10 system there will be nothing in the pop-up
** If you have an applicable third party yum repository configured, it
will find the packages that provide the missing codecs and install them.
** Codeina will NOT be installed by default and should be removed from
the Fedora 10 repository and obsoleted and blocked.
** There are no hooks to any third party vendors at this time.
** '''ACTIONS'''
*# Spot will talk with PackageKit upstream about finding a way to
included Fedora specific information which links to a Fedora wiki page
on Fedora's stance on third party codecs
*# Spot will work with package maintainer(s) to resolve the items noted
above related to codeina
