It looks like Redis, Inc. has announced that future versions of Redis are no longer OSS and will be dual-licensed SSPL and RSAL[1]. Absent a fork of Redis coming up, we will likely need to remove Redis from Fedora.
All I can say is... :(
Amazon (AWS) is setting up a BSD-licensed fork, but has not yet decided on the final name: https://github.com/placeholderkv/placeholderkv
We will see whether that or redict will get the most attention. Cloud companies like Amazon will probably prefer BSD, whereas contributors worried about another "Redis, Inc." coming up and taking their forked code proprietary too will most likely prefer the LGPL fork (redict) (unless they are unhappy about the use of version 3.0 only of the LGPL by that fork).
