Hi, given the following terms:

What kind of license tag is supposed to be used? The ideas are:
* Redistributable, no modification permitted
* Redistributable
I would say one of the 2 above, depending on if modification
is permitted. Since this "may be shared freely" it is
not just distributalble, it is REdistributable, as most
things we ship typically are.
Ok, but what about the MUST NOT be reverse engineered thing?
That definitely makes it non free, but otherwise does not need
to be mentioned in the License tag.
Fedora proper uses: "Redistributable, no modification permitted"
for the intel wireless firmware which also comes with a
no reverse engineering clause.
