No OLPCs for Cuba, Ever

An anonymous reader writes "In a move going largely unnoticed by developers, the OLPC project now requires all submissions to be hosted in the RedHat Fedora project. While this may not seem like a big deal, the implications are interesting. First, contributors have to sign the Fedora Project Individual Contributor License Agreement. By being forced to submit contributions to the Fedora repository they automatically fall under the provisions of US export law. So, no OLPC for Cuba, Syria and the like. Ever."

So what? The USA has military bases ALL OVER THE FUCKING WORLD. You have invaded more countries and participated in more military conflicts than any other country. Why is so wrong for Russia to have missiles pointing at you when you are doing the same?

I just have one word for you: Guantanamo.
