------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED]  2008-01-05 09:17 EST -------
Unfortunately no. For the record, summarising some offline discussions with 
spot:

a) some parts of the the package which are GPL'd (hdsploader,
mixartloader, pcxhrloader, us2xyloader,vxloader) don't specify a license
version for the GPL, containing only "Distributable under GPL".

-> see https://bugtrack.alsa-project.org/alsa-bug/view.php?id=3411 (no response
from upstream)

b) the "aica" firmware (aica/license.txt) is under a "KOS" license which spot
says is the same as BSD, so that's OK.

c) One of the firmwares (emi_26_62/license.txt) is clearly not OK for Fedora:

"This firmware is for the Emagic EMI 2|6 Audio Interface
 
The firmware contained herein is Copyright (c) 1999-2002 Emagic
as an unpublished work. This notice does not imply unrestricted
or public access to this firmware which is a trade secret of Emagic,
and which may not be reproduced, used, sold or transferred to
any third party without Emagic's written consent. All Rights Reserved.

This firmware may not be modified and may only be used with the
Emagic EMI 2|6 Audio Interface. Distribution and/or Modification of
any driver which includes this firmware, in whole or in part,
requires the inclusion of this statement."
