That's fair, since it was not a straight announcement:

Those are made by Red Hat employees as part of their regular job, so
automatically fail under CLA. I think a bit of research (but I am not
thrilled about doing it myself) of the RPMs from those release will
reveal a GPL license. But IANAL and i don't work for Red Hat... (we can
try a shortcut and ask spot)
I think you meant "fall" instead of "fail"! It did give me a chuckle
though. But yes, these contributions to Fedora should fall under a
license that allows reuse, redistribution, and remixes, although I
suspect it's not Creative Commons.
