Personally I think people already can install 3d party software, also proprietary software, but I'm happy Fedora doesn't ship any non-free software and tries since 10 years to promote FOSS solutions. This is also the reason why me, and I think many other ambassadors, have choosen to support Fedora, and not another 'distribuntu', spreading its word around the world. In all these replies I have exactly the same thoughts as Eric here: "From a desire to push FOSS solutions I don't like making it easy to use non-free solutions where free solutions are available. It would seem that we are endorsing these non-FOSS solutions which could also be a problem."
