The release of Fedora 16 has been the main topic of the blogroll recently, and it's fair to say that it's being greeted with open arms by many of the users.

Tom Callaway wrote a lengthy post about the Mozilla EULA controversy, which reared its head again this week in the context of Ubuntu and Mozilla.  However, Fedora dealt with this problem several months ago, at the end of the Fedora 9 release cycle.
 
Spot's entire post is worth reading, as is the commentary that follows it.  Here is one excerpt:
 
"[The] goal was always to ensure that we could walk away with license terms from Mozilla that:
 
1. Permitted Fedora to continue using the Firefox trademarks
2. Clearly upheld the MPL as the valid software license terms for the Firefox binaries and source (not just for Fedora, but for everyone)
3. Meet the criteria for Free Software
4. Are presented to the user in a non-obtrusive, non-clickthrough agreement way"

Anthony Green wrote a post that referenced SGI altering its Free B license, which has long been a thorn in the side of various distros.
