What the original author ignored to include was link to
http://brendaneich.com/2012/03/video-mobile-and-the-open-web/ which
explains the position of MoFo. What he completely missed is bug
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=422540 around which we
argued for years that MoFo should leave whole codecs business altogether
and let platform systems (GStreamer, QuickTime, DirectShow) deal with it
(as many WebKit-based browsers do now).
If he read the bug and understood what it means, he would know that it
has absolutely nothing to do with inclusion of H.264 in the Fedora
proper. My system is perfectly capable of viewing H.264 movies now.
Best,
