As stated by some on IRC I could just have dropped in the repos and be
done with it. No one would have complained I guess. But to be fair, I
personally think you have the right to know I want to maintain a
package for proprietary software. And if there is a consensus against
it I will definatly not package the proprietary stoftware in our repos.

And thanks to the constructive input I will make sure it is obvious we
have the rights for redistribution. That was also mostly my goal, get
input if I'm missing something or overlooked something before bringing
it in.
