Hi,
I packed 7kaa https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1220779
The project itself is GPL, but I would like to know whether the game music can get in as well.

The guideline (Code vs Content) says:
Game music or audio content is permissible, as long as the content is freely distributable without restriction, and the format is not patent encumbered.
Unfortunately, I think that clause 1 is a restriction on distribution, specifically the "complete set" rule. The license is not open source, because of the restriction on "modification", but it doesn't have to be to meet the Content rule here. If upstream waived the "complete set" requirement, I think we would let it in.
