So Fedora accepts its sources to be less redistributable than its binaries?
That is quite strange indeed.

If that is necessary for the sake of the argument, I can endorse the clown's
hat:

I claim that H.264 is not patent-encumbered.

That is clearly wrong, of course. Any clown on Internet can claim anything,
and even if that clown's name is Google or On2, that does not make it more
true than a technical analysis.

Now, I will follow Carl Eugen's advice and stop trolling.
