Actually, I had a discussion with the Fedora Hosted admins about this on Friday. We determined that Chromium is NOT in violation of the current policy on repos. Basically, the only two rules are: must be a compatible license and must not be on the ForbiddenItems list. My proposal is more of a marketing formalization of this policy: that repos can be kept unofficial, but still on a fedora*.org domain so that we retain the mindshare (as opposed to having joesrepo.geocities.com, for example). - -- Stephen Gallagher RHCE 804006346421761 Delivering value year after year.
