Hi Justin,
Are you asking for the review of these b/c there is a package to be
included in Fedora that uses these licenses?
Thanks,

Hey all,
Since Creative Commons licenses are already coming up, how is the Creative Commons IGO
license family classified in Fedora?
I didn't notice these licenses in the Licenses wiki page. They are distinctly
different from other Creative Commons licenses and to the best of my knowledge, they are
not superseded by the 4.0 family of Creative Commons licenses. I mention it here because
if we are looking at other Creative Commons license families, it would be good to clarify
how Fedora views the IGO family too. For context, some UN agencies are considering the IGO
family of licenses as a default open source license for work created by public servants,
so it isn't impossible to see CC IGO content working its way into Fedora at some
point.
The key distinction made in the IGO licenses from other CC licenses is around mediation
and arbitration for resolving legal disputes.
