The author seems to be violating the GPL with Menuet64? Menuet64 is pretty clearly a derivative work of Menuet32, which is GPL. However, Menuet64 is released under a non-free license.

Originally I believed the author may be the sole author of Menuet32, and thus could relicense to whatever they wanted. However, the release notes (https://www.menuetos.net/relnotes.htm) credit many other authors with their contributions.

Well it depends on the potential agreement with the other authors, I would say it is none of our business if they don't complain about it.

Not sure if it becomes "legal" to breach the GPL if original authors die though.
