Everything that Fedora ships.  Mixing in 3rd party packages, would be
an abuse of the trademark policy and such an image would no longer
quality as being called Fedora.

If you are in the EU, and care about continuing to be 'free' you
should consider making a healthy donation to the ffii.org, to help
fight the latest effort to create a standard set of software patent
laws:
