It's not like patents where you don't even need to know there is a patent to infringe, with copyright you need to have copied it. So if you end up with some of the same sequences then you can argue that it's just a coincidence. Obviously if you ended up with the entire contents of the ROM then you copied it & you don't have much of an argument. It would be possible to do a legal jiffy dos compatible kernal, but it's far easier to just pirate it. Message was sent through the cbm-hackers mailing listReceived on 2017-12-14 01:00:02
