Rudi suggested I forward this to the legal list instead of just to spot.

Tom,

Your thoughts on creating our own publican and publican-fedora repos?
Feel free to respond either to me or to [e-mail] (although
that list does require subscribing first).

Please inform me what part of http://www.transifex.net/about/terms/ grants
them any more rights than the normal publican license at
http://svn.fedorahosted.org/svn/publican/trunk/publican/LICENSE does.

"By submitting public (non-private) Content to Indifex for inclusion on
your Website, you grant Indifex a world-wide, royalty-free, and
non-exclusive license to reproduce, modify, adapt and publish the Content
solely for the purpose of displaying and promoting your account or
project."

I believe that per the publican license those rights are granted to
everyone by the GPLv2+ which publican is licensed under.

Also, what prevents someone from creating a separate repo to use for
keeping the fedora.transifex.net translations in?

After review with Red Hat Legal, we see no areas of concern in use of
Transifex.net or its Terms of Service.

Individuals with specific concerns can either send them to
[e-mail], or privately to Fedora Legal at
[e-mail].
