-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Ok, more digging around for a useful emulation related program that's unencumbered by non-free crap. I think I found one called ucon64[0], self-billed as the 'Swiss Army Knife of emulation utilities'. I've actually been using it for a while and for some reason it didn't even cross my mind to check if it was workable in Debian, as I'd installed it when I was still pretty new to Debian and wasn't even thinking about packaging my own stuff yet. Anyway... the program itself is GPL, no problems there. However, on the same site, they have several zip files that are basically rom databases produced by running the program on directories full of ROMs, allowing you to match ROM images by their checksums. I'd like to package those alongside ucon64, but they lack true licenses. The databases constitute effort (because the creators had to assemble an entire directory of ROMs), but in my opinion, no creativity (because all that was involved in the creation was running ucon64 over said directories). Are they still covered by copyright law in that case?
Thoughts?
