What do these caveats involve? As far as I was aware, Fluendo is now
providing these codecs legally, and thus it was perfectly legal for
users to access those codecs.
I also understand that Fedora is very strong on it's notion of what
should be in the distro, and I very much agree. It is also a very good
opportunity to educate users however about free alternatives while
informing them about legal access to things they may want.
I'll be sure to ask before making such suggestions, it will require some
self education first however, as I'm not fully aware of the Fluendo
options.
