The 2 important points are:
* Do the packages themselves contain any closed-source stuff themselves? If
so, they have to go to rpmfusion nonfree.
* Do they infringe on any US software patents? If so, they have to go to
rpmfusion (nonfree if the first point is also true, free otherwise).
If none of these are the case, the packages should go into Fedora.
Hi Kevin. Thanks for your reply. I'm honestly not 100% sure about either of
these questions. Looking at the developer's page for this program,
http://www.netdirect.ca/software/packages/barry/, it's under the GPLv2. This
leads me to believe there's no closed-source stuff in the package.
As for infringing on US software patents, I'm not sure. Since I'm not 100%
sure about either of these, how can I find out for sure? If it is the case
that it can be included in Fedora, what's the process to do that. Do you have
a link you could give me?
