Roland Backs Down On MT-32 Emulator

canadacow writes "This is a follow up to the cease and desist letter the MT-32 project received (Original Story). Roland, unable to find documentationg establishing a copyright on the MT-32's ROM, has yielded to the project and allowed distribution of the emulator to continue. On my page www.artworxinn.com/alex I've again posted the emulator along with the legal developments as they happened after the receipt of the initial C&D letter. This development was largely due in part to the legal support of the Electronic Frontier Foundation."

    ahh yes, but anything under 60 days is not considerd a way, this was passed back in the 50's i beleave for one reason or another (sompthing about pre empting a nuclear attack) so the first 60 days are the presidents choice (it could be 90, but ill stick with the safer 60)and thus not thenically a way, all the president has to do is send the troops over there, and bomb the hell out of them for 60 days end it for 20 and go and do it again... i dont beleave there are any limits on how soon and when he can use this power again...
