Indeed. All ubuntu does beyond Fedora is make it a little easier for the 
user to add these additional repos if they choose to do so, by 
acknowledging they exist and having a few tools to aid the user in 
adding them if they wish to. Fedora on the other hand completely ignores 
the additional repos and it is up to the user to find out about them 
themselves. The default installation of ubuntu is as open and GPL as 
Fedora is, IMHO (YMMV).
