Hi, I have a question about exFAT in Fedora. I would like to package exfatprogs[1] (new userspace exFAT utilities from Samsung) for Fedora but exFAT is still listed in the forbidden items[2]. I assume this was not updated when Microsoft allowed including the exFAT driver in kernel and exFAT should be allowed now. But I'm not a legal expert so it's possible I'm missing something here. So my question is simple: can we package exfatprogs for Fedora now or not? Thanks.

Ok, feel free to ignore this, I didn't notice package review is already in progress https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1824156
