Is the Monkey's Audio license "good"?
Hello,
I recently read a thread about someone asking about adding the
Monkey's Audio codec to openSUSE and it having an odd license[1], and
I was thinking of bringing this to Fedora as well.
However, the license[2] is confusing, and I'm not sure if it
necessarily qualifies under Fedora's definition of good open source
software[3].
If it is, what kind of license tag should be used, or should a new one
be made for it? I'm leaning toward a new license tag, given that the
terms look "special".
Thanks in advance and best regards,
Neal
