Does AROS breach United States copyright law?


If Amiga Inc license an Amiga branded product running it, then that act will be in breach of the terms of the Agreement, being an OS exhibiting a substantially similar software architecture.

Only in the context of, "to the extent that such Software Architecture is protectable under the copyright laws of the United States(1).

Again, does AROS breach AmigaOS's protectable copyright?
