It's actually got nothing to do with me, we ship what goes into the upstream linux-firmware repository. There's generally agreed legal requirements for re-distribution of firmwares that go into that upstream repository and if they don't conform to that requirement they can't be redistributed by linux distros. This is nothing to do with me, Fedora (or Red Hat legal) liking or disliking the license, I can only presume, and may well be wrong here, that's it's the Linux Foundation legal team that deal with those, either way they're not there so it's a problem.
