Hey, on a related note... I'm applying for a position as a
Open source license compliance analyst
(amazing!)
and I would be eager to learn more about how we do things in Fedora.
If I get the gig, I will even be able to contribute some time to the effort.

While I may have failed doing so, you succeeded, thanks ;)<br> <br>
The nature of these issues means we cannot publicly discuss most of<br>
the details. On some level, you're just going to have to trust Matthew<br>
Miller on what he says on behalf of Red Hat. Red Hat lawyers aren't<br>
going to step into this thread or any other thread about this stuff<br>
and say anything meaningful. While we would like the information, it's<br>
legal suicide to give up that information, so they won't.<br>
<br>
It sucks, but it is what it is.<br>
