Hi,

from my POV (not a lawyer) this license does NOT look to be suitable for
Fedora. Although the license seems to be compliant with many or most of
the statues of opensoure-software, it impairs the user's freedom, and
thus is to be considered as a NON-FREE license.

Just my thoughts about it…

Cheers
Björn
