Hi,
Unfortunately we have decided this license does not meet Fedora's
minimum standards for a free software/open source license.
The license may continue to be tolerated for software that is
currently packaged in Fedora, but would not be allowed for future
packages.
So it's ok for OpenvSwitch I guess because it's a key technology
nowadays, but not for this. [shrugs]
Thanks anyway for your consideration.
Iñaki
My recommendation would be to try to get the upstream developers to
switch to an OSI-approved permissive license like the MIT license.
