Here is the latest status update on the FSF Free Software audit of Fedora: * Still waiting on the FSF to give me answers on some of the licenses, (specifically lha, libc-client, xorg-x11-proto-devel). * cleanfeed was dropped from Fedora Core * Working hard to get lesstif in and openmotif out before FC-6. We're almost there. After FC-6 releases, I'll start an audit on Fedora Extras. THE KNOWN UNKNOWNS (3): Packages of questionable licenses that need to be blessed or damned by the FSF: ####################################################################### PACKAGE NAME || RPM provided license || Notes ####################################################################### lha || freeware || Waiting on FSF libc-client-* || U of W Free Fork || Waiting on FSF xorg-x11-proto-devel || The Open Group || Waiting on FSF THE KNOWNS (2): Packages with non-free licenses that need to be taken out of Fedora Core and moved to Fedora Extras (or trashed entirely) ####################################################################### PACKAGE NAME || RPM provided license || Notes ####################################################################### openmotif-* || Open Group Public || Bugzilla 202527 Everything else in Fedora Core checks out with an FSF compatible license. ~spot -- Tom "spot" Callaway: Red Hat Technical Team Lead || GPG ID: 93054260 Fedora Extras Steering Committee Member (RPM Standards and Practices) Aurora Linux Project Leader: http://auroralinux.org Lemurs, llamas, and sparcs, oh my! -- Fedora-maintainers mailing list Fedora-maintainers@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-maintainers -- Fedora-maintainers-readonly mailing list Fedora-maintainers-readonly@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-maintainers-readonly
