[ILUG] non-GPL bits in RedHat 8?

[ILUG] non-GPL bits in RedHat 8?

suggests that there are parts of Red Hat that are not redistributable. I
guess this means they're non-GPL. I'm amazed that the kneejerk reactions
haven't already started; when I saw this item on slashdot (it's down in
the 8.0 Release thread) I was amazed that there'd be no poorly-worded
backlash posts about what a bunch of money-grubbing etc. Red Hat are and
how this would be their downfall and...

er, sorry. got carried away there. Anyway. Since I haven't had a chance
to look through the goodies, does anyone know which bits exactly are
covered by this?

Cheers,
Waider. Curious more than anything else.
