For what it is worth, I'm not opposed to this, but we would need to be
very careful that the trademark guidelines are strictly enforced in this
case, due to the nature of some of the rpmfusion bits.

Obviously, this spin couldn't be hosted on Fedora servers (or US
servers), nor could we point to its torrent from Fedora's tracker, or
advertise it on Fedora's website. I would encourage rpmfusion to handle
these matters with their own infrastructure.
