[Fedora-legal-list] tivodecode package
I need a ruling on whether tivodecode can be accepted into Fedora. It's
currently submitted to rpmfusion, but Kevin Koffler thought it might be
able to be accepted into Fedora proper.
There were three things under consideration:
* Freeness of QUALCOMM software license - appears to be free software
* QUALCOMM encryption patents (free?)
* MPEG program stream decoding (not decompression)

Seems that the question regarding MPEG program stream decoding is
perhaps not and issue as pointed out by Kevin in comment #3. But the
freeness of the patent license is questionable.
