Also note that Uwe mentioned the Fedora review request in his RPM
Fusion
bugzilla review request.
My fault. Sorry, I should have read RPM Fusion BZ and not assuming things.

I totally disagree; we had situations where it took months to get the legal
status in Fedora resolved. RPM Fusion for such timeframes imho is a
acceptable home for a package. But sure, if it looks like this will be
resolved quicker (like it does now) then it makes no sense to get it into
RPM FUsion.
Usually RH Legal is quite fast in responding and usually denying acceptance.
Therefore I agree with Thorsten. If Legal status is cleared quickly
there is no need to act here in RPM Fusion. Otherwise review can go
on.
IMHO next time, it would be advisable to have a "troubled" package to
be submitted here first and then to Fedora for a Legal check. In this
way a package submitted to Fedora should also be reviewed more
quickly.
Sorry for lot of noise.
Bye,
Andrea.
