Would Google Earth be acceptable as a rpmfusion package?
Probably not as it need to be at least redistributable.
You can still ask google for an eventual agreement for rpmfusion to
redistribute googleearth,
I haven't the GoogleEarth license in mind.
Last time I've checked, Ville Skytta did some experiments, maybe they
still remain on his personal repository.
Once that said, having a "nosource" rpm package redistributed by
rpmfusion would be awesome.
As the same with the flash-plugin, we could eventually redistribute
such nosource rpm within the SRPM rpmfusion_nonfre repository. I
don't know if this could be handled properly from the builder side.

Ack,
If there is someone who is willing to do the work on this wrt packaging
I know someone at google (who has nothing todo with googleearth) and I
can ask him to put me into contact with someone who can make a decision
about giving us redistribution permission.
I must say it would be cool to have googleearth packaged up, last time I
checked it needed some fixing to work on Fedora (some selinux context stuff),
and it would be nice to offer a good out of the box experience.

If someone wants it, here's a specfile I use personally:

The issue of bundled libs needs ironing out, though (nothing in Fedora
provides libssl.so.0.9.8).

What's wrong with google's own repository?

This seems still ge4. have you tried with
ge5 ?
libssl.so.0.9.8{g,k} is present in F-10 F-11, but it shouldn't matter
as the real SONAME for this library is libssl.so.7.

Among
other sections, this section of licensing is a bit tricky:
"1. USE OF SOFTWARE; RESTRICTIONS

to and may be used by you only for your personal, non-commercial use
according to these Terms of Service and the Software documentation"
