Fedora is committed to having nothing in its official repos that has (or could have) patent issues. They even took the autocorrect function out of OpenOffice because there's a patent involved even though the patent owner hasn't complained. One of the reasons apps end up in the third-party repos is because they do have patent issues and aren't eligible for the official ones. Under the circumstances, your suggestion, although good in theory, isn't practical. -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
