A key part to take from the conversation: "I also know from working with Tom Callaway that the theoretical solution of using the section 7 permission to remove additional restrictions is not one that Fedora generally wishes to use, perhaps as a matter of policy. I would add that, speaking for Red Hat as distributor, we do not wish to use that permission in this instance."

Ie: There is additional restrictions added to the AGPLv3 license in this specific case. The license allow fedora to remove them, but Fedora chooses not to do so.
