That may legally ok for Ubuntu (maybe nobody took this to court), but I'd like
to ask our legal department regarding this.

@FE-Legal:
So, the question here is: is it ok to use GPLv3 and add the following text:

)

This should be still GPLv3, right?



I'm not saying, this software is non-free software.

Regarding those Ubuntu targeted scripts, I asked myself: what value would be
added to Fedora? As far as I can see, there would be some scripts added, to
interact with Ubuntu Cloud services and to solely manage Ubuntu cloud images,
right? 

Do the tools also work for Fedora images at e.g. Amazon Cloud?
