"on the same cd" is only valid if it's really independent works, in fact "part of the same work" is conditional on that. Fedora is a work, so are many other things. (and "independent" is key here; for example it'll be really hard to argue that say a kernel module is independent of the kernel on the same cd set, while it'll not be hard to argue that an Oracle DB is independent from MySQL on the same cd set. Where the boundary is... tricky and you should talk to a lawyer if you want to get close to this edge) -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
