Well, people can read the link: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/advisory-board/2013-November/012261.html Unless FESCO is planning to host an emergency meeting, the Firefox issue will be decided after the IETF vote, or at least too late to have any influence. Regardless of what Firefox may be permitted to do on its own - and not all of us use Firefox - "the OpenH264 code from Cisco is not acceptable in Fedora" is a very significant statement.
