With a single maintainer introducing a ffmpeg-free binary packages

admittedly rejoice from the ffmpeg introduction intro Fedora
(enabling ffmpeg support for some fedora package lacking it), the
method used to forcibly introduced an un-backed (by most RPM Fusion
packager involved) package with uncertain features enabled, was
perceived as unfriendly for the least. A determining argument for
any "new eyes" is the very short time the Fedora review took
compared with a fully backed 6 months Fedora feature review
process.
Just for avoidance of doubt, getting ffmpeg into Fedora was a priority
for the Workstation Working Group, and Neal was working in coordination
with us on that. We want to provide as much multimedia in Fedora as we
legally can without requiring that users resort to third-party
repositories.
