The code being distributed and needed for the build system are available. Removing the trademarked pieces are easy.

I disagree. Resources are limited. We need to prioritize marketing where it will best benefit the project. -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
