We then decline to include their software in Fedora. Do you see > another way to deal with this without involving Red Hat legal? We shouldn't abuse Red Hat legal, but discarding the option a priori seem a bit hard to me. What you are implying is that Fedora is an "English" only distribution. Well, while I have no problems with English, this seem a bit discriminatory and I don't like it. I think we can be more pragmatic and be open, and deal with each issue when it comes up. If, and when, the number of packages with foreign language licenses will be too high, then we can reopen the discussion and see if there are more creative ideas on how to solve this issue.
