Hi folks, as you may already know, MongoDB is now licensed under SSPLv1[1] as of October 16. Since SSPLv1 doesn't meet Fedora's license requirements, I'd like to start a conversation on MongoDB's future in Fedora.
Theoretically, we could maintain versions prior to October 15, however, the new license doesn't allow backporting (due to incompatibility with AGPLv3 - see related thread[2] on fedora legal list). Therefore, I'd suggest dropping MongoDB from Fedora. I intend to file a FESCo ticket, and let them make the final decision, however, any thoughts or suggestions are welcome.
