I hate to be obtuse here Chitlesh, but seeing as how finally someone (Chris)
clearly has _precisely_ the same question as I do, I need to reiterate that
your supplied legal link does not answer my question.
I think in the archive post I referenced, the situation of #2, is very simple,
and I can't seem to get a straight answer from fedora. Can you please
specifically answer my question in the above Kadischi Legal Wiki, i.e.
Question: If I as fedora/kadischi user, produce a livecd with kadischi (say
nothing more than the supplied minimal.ks and a post install script that adds a
motd of "jane dogalt is the coolest"), am I legally allowed to post that on my
own website for mass distribution under the title
"jane_dogalt_is_the_coolest.iso"?
I.e. due to the default behavior of kadischi, fedora-logos*.rpm will be
installed. Is that a problem? If so would simply removing that rpm in a post
install script resolve the distribution problem?
I don't think I can specify the question any clearer than that. And I for the
life of me don't see an answer to that in the wiki-kadischi-legal you
referenced.
