Hi All,
I've just packaged this cool recently set free old style
adventure game drascula, including music and subtitles
in French, German, Spanish and Italian.
Well I am reading this in drascula-music's readme.txt:

Sounds like a "non-free" package to me.
2) You may charge a reasonable copying fee for this archive, and may
distribute it in aggregate as part of a larger and possibly commercial software
distribution (such as a Linux distribution or magazine coverdisk).
== you may distribute it as part of Fedora.
No, as part of "a larger and possibly commercial software distribution".
IMO, this "license" is self contradicting => Likely illegal and likely void.
The clause I cited, restricts commercial use of the SW itself. One of
the basic freedoms of open source software.
It's content, not code.
Any content is also "source"-code at the same time. It's a matter of
use-case. It's essentially the same thing as fonts, images etc. In this
case it's "audio artworks."
In this case, their license doen't allow reusing their sources outside
of their framework => their "art work" is non-free,
=> package must not be in Fedora.
