--- Comment #11 from Justin Wheeler <[email protected]> ---
I am not able to legally represent Red Hat, and therefore, if there is an
absolute need for legal certainty, one must seek feedback from the Fedora Legal
mailing list.

However, in my interpretation of the issue, the restriction is like Neal said,
on the participation of individuals from countries with export controls. The
issue has to do with outbound software, like our packages distributed in our
own repos and servers, not about inbound software which we package. I think you
can read the nature of the export control laws and come to the same conclusion.
I am unaware of any instances where we have enforced export control policy on
inbound software, since open source software licenses deal with the code and
inbound software does not come with any ties to a particular country of origin.

IMHO, this is what open source licenses handle and deal for us. I don't see
export control policy having any effect on any conversation here. But I am just
another Fedora packager in the pool of contributors and I have no special
authority or privilege, either here or elsewhere in Fedora packaging.
