indeed, that is the problem.

FSF often askes contributors to transfer the copyrights to them.
And it is controversial, and FSF has to accept exceptions in some
cases.
And FSF is a non-profit, whose stated goal is to promote free
software.

Why should people have this level of trust to Red Hat, Inc., whose
stated goal is to generate maximal profit for the shareholders?

So it seems that to lower the enter barrier, we should _not_ use FAS
for fedorahosted.org.

I would rather continue using FAS but drop the CLA requirement for a fedorahosted account.
