Hi,
a package on review includes a small (48 bytes) bitmap of the Nintendo
logo [0]. The author of the package claims that:
This bitmap must be present in the ROM in order for the console to
boot into the game. It is my understanding the presence of the logo,
when it's required to pass hardware restrictions, is not a trademark
violation, rather, it deemed fair use in the US (see [1]), but IANAL.
Is this acceptable in Fedora?
Note that the package is not an emulator, but a compiler/linker.
