We gonna start an Rpmfusion Fedora spin giving user
the much wanted/needed media support in Fedora.

With strictly the media support ( ugly-plugins etc. ) and the rpmfusion 
repo installed,
and excluding AMD and Nvidia drivers
will we need Rename the spin or could it be released under Fedora name
and artwork? * Legal/others

If needed to change the name/artwork would FedoriansFusion be A OK
If naming/artwork is changed could we include the AMD and Nvidia drivers?

Will this be available on fedoraprojects.org as in
will Max Spevack put his money where is mouth is so I quote Max
"So go forth and mix your own Fedora. And then come back and share it 
with us, and we’ll put it up on the _*Fedora website for others to use 
also.*_"

Or was this just a pr c...

It would be interesting download stats Fedora VS Fedora with media 
support :)

If everything is done outside US hosted outside US created outside US 
how much legal
jibber jabber comes from that ? Not for US residents version of Fedora?

Best regards
