I can't comment on RHEL policies, but I do not believe there is a way to
indicate the License tag for a SRPM in a way that is different from the
binary RPMs (whereas, it is possible to indicate a different License tag
for each binary subpackage).
Currently, RHEL policies regarding License tags are the same as
Fedora's.
Jaromir, please follow up with me off-list for questions about RHEL
(since this is a Fedora list).
