That is clearly not OK for Fedora (it's non-Free), nor is it Open Source (in
the sense defined by the OSI).
Complain to them about diluting the term "Open Source".

Indeed it's not. The ability for Linux to be used commercially is one of
it's primer drivers of awesomeness. I would suspect they /could/ be
educated about changing this if shown the benefits. (Future custom live
spin for academic use easily distributable to libraries? I don't know as
I'm not familiar with the app).
Incidentally, the Creative Commons has a survey up here, incidentally,
that folks ought to way in on if you do license CC works. It's a bit long:

The issues for writers and photographers and such can be slightly
different from those of software developers, so I'd encourage those with
an interest in the CC to way in.
