.us operation. When they merged with RedHat to form
the FedoraProject,
packages with 'questionable' licences
(such as
mplayer, xine, videolan-client and xmms-mp3) had
to be removed

-The open community of volunteers gathered in rpm
.livna.org will continue
to maintain those packages and everybody is free to contribute by sending new spec files and/or new packages

to be used only if you use the FedoraExtras project
