Hello, I am wanting to build a copy of Unicenta which is an open source Point of Sales system. It is currently not in the Fedora repository's. The program uses a GNU GPL license. I am wondering if it is all OK to run the build?
As you may be able to tell I am new to the whole contributing to the operating system thing.

Welcome to Fedora. This wiki page should answer most of your questions: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Join_the_package_collection_maintainers
Feel free to ask if you are unsure about something.
I recommend joining IRC channels (#fedora-devel on Freenode network) for interactive help.
Regards, Dominik

...and while you work on the package to meet all the criteria to be included in official repository, you can start with Copr[1] - so there is a package available to anyone interested.
