I'm inclined to agree with Tibbs's assessment. There are two points to be made
here:

1. There is no license on this code (and it is code, not content). Without a
license, the code is non-free.

2. "Freely distributable without restrictions" is not an acceptable license for
Fedora code.

You should get specific licensing terms from the copyright holder (aka, the
author). Without that, this cannot move forward. His individual views on free
software aside, the way that copyright law works is that the only right we are
given simply by having access to his software is the right to use. We do not
have the right to copy, modify, or redistribute. We need him to explicitly
grant us (and anyone who gets the code from us) those rights.
