Hi Abhiram,

you can make COPR. No one asks, no harm done, everyone's happy.

Hi all,
So, the other day I ordered a USB Wireless AC adapter for my pc, and I was 
surprised to see that it didn't automatically start working.
After looking around, I came across this tutorial that mentioned this github 
page.

The driver installation worked, and the device runs.

So, I would like to package it for Fedora, but I am not sure if it is allowed. 
The github page's LICENSE document says GPLv2, but I just wanted to make sure 
before I packaged it.

Could someone please help me out?

kmod packages are not permitted in Fedora, in any form:

Instead, you should work with the Fedora kernel maintainers to figure
out what's needed to make it work upstream.
