Question is this: RetroArch has a custom "do whatever" license, and RA can download other emulators, each with their own license.

A product has integrated RA and isn't abiding by the emulators' licenses. If that's legal, I think it sets a dangerous precedent.

Wanna use GPL code without releasing source? Just release a license-free library to download it, and integrate that instead! etc.

Of course it's illegal. A bittorrent client license doesn't impact the copyright of the movies you get with it

Well YOU happen to be on the MAME board, given that we're OSI-compliant now why don't we rustle up some FSF support?

if I don't respond to this in a timely fashion, ping me again. There's certainly peoplr to talk to.

Looking closer, in that particular case, it's probably not illegal. Nothing makes the FE a derivative of mame.

But the #1 question to ask would be what are you looking for if you sue them and can you get it by asking them?
