I remember that very well. This is a good reason BTW why mondo is still
not part of Fedora.

That's also what I disklike in Fedora, their pickiness on everything,
especially when a SW predates the birth of the person in charge of legal
;-) 

Well, I still consider afio a free software myself, surely not in the
sense of the GPL. If you prefer to have it in PLF, why not, but I think
that contrib is appropriate. I never had any answer from the contact I
tried to make with the original writer.
