In the past Fedora has been willing to explain why MP3 decoders are NOT acceptable in Fedora. I have a really hard time believing that an explanation as to why that is no longer true cannot be provided, possibly with a suitable disclaimer.  I'm not asking for a blanket statement that MP3 decoders are now completely unencumbered and that someone can do whatever the hell they want with them. I'm only asking what changed.
