Hi,
I would like to know is there a way in Fedora to ship only binaries of a free/open source software.
Upstream releases the sources under a free/open source software license, but, would like one to register (for free) at their website before downloading the source. They want to be able to track who downloaded the sources.
If it's a true free/open license then it grants redistribution rights and only one person/entity would need to register to download the source. If such redistribution is not allowed then the license is not acceptable for fedora anyway.
