- You are right about not having to include all the old firmwares, but after
checking, FC5 (which I want to support) ships with ipw220 "git-1.0.8", which
requires the 2.4 firmware to work. Shipping the 2.4 firmware will allow someone
to simply install this package after an install and be able to "yum update" the
system, without having to also find a way to install the latest kernel. I'll cut
back to only 2.4 + 3.0 if that's ok with you. Once support for FC5 is gone, I'll
drop the 2.4 firmware.

- The LICENSE files from 2.4 and 3.0 are identical, I've just checked.

- I hadn't thought about --excludedocs so indeed the LICENSE file provided in
the firmware directory shouldn't be tagged as %doc since its presence is
mandatory. I'll make the symlink you suggest (in the ipw2100 package too).
