AFAIK Fedora actually does not currently have any specific license
recommendations for anything other than (if this hasn't changed) the
use of CC-BY-SA-4.0 for Fedora documentation. In the past I believe
Fedora had some informal recommendations around use of the GPL
(GPLv2?), LGPL (2.1?) and the MIT license for certain specific
categories of things, and I think there were some informal
recommendations to use CC0 in some situations and (though I imagine
this had no practical significance) SIL OFL 1.1 for fonts.

Having an actual permissive license makes it clear to a potential user
that there is no copyright violation.
