Here's what I just sent to ams@ams.org:

---------------------

The breqn latex package as referenced on
http://www.tug.org/tex-archive/help/Catalogue/entries/breqn.html
and downloadable from
ftp://ftp.ams.org/pub/tex/breqn.tgz
contains no licensing terms.

I'd like to be able to either package and/or redistribute this software 
as part of the Fedora Extras software collection (http://www.fedora.us). 
  In the absense of any explicit licensing terms (e.g. GPL, LPPL, etc), 
this is not possible.  Could you please clarify this?  Thank you.
