Hi !
I agree from this. I just want to notice that "-nonfree" expects at
least the package to be redistributable.
I don't expect dribble have such packages. But amr{nb,wb} codecs are
( altought opensource - we even cannot retristribute the sources).
For such cases i guess it would be desirable to have nosrc.rpm in the
SRPMS non-free section.
http://kwizart.free.fr/fedora/nosrc/amrnb-7.0.0.0-1.nosrc.rpm
http://kwizart.free.fr/fedora/nosrc/amrwb-7.0.0.2-1.nosrc.rpm
I will request a review if allowed.

Also all packages that can go to Fedora shouldn't be allowed in RPM Fusion.
( I have submitted some perl package freshrpms use for dvdrip at least)

I don't know if this can concern some p2p programs that are
problematic in some country...


It could, so you should take this in account first.
