FDK-AAC license should not be allowed
According to #32 (closed), "express exclusion of a patent grant" is not acceptable for a code license in Fedora.
The FDK-AAC license includes the following paragraph:
3.NO PATENT LICENSE
NO EXPRESS OR IMPLIED LICENSES TO ANY PATENT CLAIMS, including without limitation the patents of Fraunhofer, ARE GRANTED BY THIS SOFTWARE LICENSE. Fraunhofer provides no warranty of patent non-infringement with respect to this software.
You may use this FDK AAC Codec software or modifications thereto only for purposes that are authorized by appropriate patent licenses.
This is very clearly an "express exclusion of a patent grant". Hence, this license is not acceptable for Fedora.
