Hi Neal,
From discussing this with the internal team, the feedback is that the video
codecs need to be released 25+ years in order to be included in Fedora
and/or RHEL, and the bz's (including rhbz#2244820) and/or github files
associated with them are not clear that they meet this criteria. Is there a
way you can verify that they do in fact meet this requirement?
The rule I've been told is 20 years rather than 25 years, since the former is
the length of time of a patent.
That being said, the whitepaper published by MPEG about the new codec
explicitly notes this:
The Baseline profile contains technologies assessed to be over 20
years to maximally approach to a royalty free codec.
The Baseline profile builds a video codec using only conventional coding technologies
which consist of traditional methods
from the early 1980s to the end of the 1990s.

From that perspective, it should fulfill the necessary requirements.
