GodEater:
Why not ask them ?

brarei200:
It would be better to port iDarcNES thus it runs at 100% on iPod Linux. I'll post the source if you change your mind.  ;D

iPod Linux Page-http://ipodlinux.org/Idarcnes

Source Code-http://scs.ryerson.ca/~sriddle/darcnes.src.tar.gz

Thanks

Llorean:
We CANNOT, as it is NOT GPL LICENSED. Please, understand that this is a very strict line that will not be crossed as the terms of the software license don't allow it.

ComposerDude:
brarei200: As far as I have seen, DarcNES is not GPL compatible. The GPL requires that any derivative works remain under the GPL. Since DarcNES would be relying on GPL'ed code to run, Rockbox (a GPL licensed work) would not be able to package it officially, and I would have my doubts as to wether or not it would be an acceptable practice for it to rely on GPL (Closed-source can use LGPL stuff, but not GPL). Hence, unless the author of DarcNES were to release it under the GPL, It will NEVER BE PORTED to Rockbox.

I'll stick with TuxNES til that happens.
Peace out, ComposerDude

LambdaCalculus:
brare1200: FCE Ultra, on the other hand, IS GPL licensed.

A lot of people have to understand that not just any old emulator can be ported over. GPL software is rather strict about that.

Here's Wikipedia's entry on FCE Ultra, along with a link to the main page:
