Per https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1979565#c12
there appears to still be a pending legal review issue and
you may need to scrub the sources of the BMFF parts before

I believe legal was pinged recently as to the status of the
BMFF question.

I have CC: the legal mailing list in case they have any
input.

Hoo boy.

Probably best to wait a bit to hear from legal before proceeding,
