No one said anything about getting Fedora/extras to package a list of alternate repo's that might contribute to infringement. Just a Gui for adding repos was suggested. Something like what is available now in extras such as kyum-0.7.5-1.


Um quote: It would be nice if there were some repository config manager, which pulled a master "authoritative" list from somewhere and let you select repositories via ncurses/x11/etc. The directory would list the repository name, its intended function, its geographic location and link speeds, etc. to make sorting out the whole mess a bit easier.

End quote.

And I'm saying that this 'authoritative' list would have to live outside
the realm of Fedora.  So somebody outside of Fedora would have to
create/maintain it and convince everybody that they are 'authoritative'
even though they aren't part of the Fedora Project.


Why should an authoritative list of official Fedora mirrors have to live outside Fedora?

Debian has had an equivalent list for years, and Debian is paranoid about following the law and licences.
