Hi, back to this point , no license doesn't mean you can. At least, is
what lawyers in my work said about other thing completely different. 
So or we have permission or is not authorized, but I'm not a lawyer . 
So I think we can call "Adobe's Flash plugin" not redistributable (by
omission in license ?! ). 

Apart of this. RPMFusion have any other rule or restriction ? to not
ship this kind of software ? , because already have a repo ? 

My idea was exactly not have to configure a dozen repositories, and
eventually an rpmfusion remix have it all out of the box .
