You are probably talking about GNU FDL documents with invariant 
sections. They do have various other documents licensed differently in 
their package archive. The presence of non-free repository makes 
Fedora's position much more on stronger on Free software licenses IMO. I 
consider the licenses of functional software more important that 
documentation, artwork and content. There are different rules that 
apply. See http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/FreeSoftwareAnalysis/FSF
