Then I assume it'a an oversight that other closed source firmware ships with Fedora?

The bluez-bluefw module ships with a GLP license even though the firmware that is included appears ( as in I'm email broadcom right now ) to be free as in beer not free as in speech. Without the source code it's only Free and not FOSS.

If they can ship free-redistibutution firmware for the broadcom why not intel's free-redistribution license?

Cheers,
Eric

Is this a package for livna, core or extras?


If its not foss its livna.
Fedora Core and Extras are chartered to be solely foss material.
