I'm reading Tom Callaway's recommendations on the change needed in the licence. I think Fedora is NOT a Commercial Distributor and is NOT dealing a commercial offering. So as a non-profit organization we/fedora don't require the need for a chance in license, right ?
However, others may use Fedora in commercial offerings. We don't restrict that use case at all, as it would be non-free of us to do so. Which means that we cannot have software in the repositories that has commercial entity restrictions.
Also, Fedora is not a 'not-profit organization'. There are very specific legalities that need to be completed before you can declare yourself as that.
