Anyone who can find non-PD games for the emulators can find any required BIOS files too, usually from the same sources. The BIOSes should definitely not be distributed by maemo.org unless permission is granted, (like with the Spectrum BIOS).

Anyone into emulation will come across the same issue when running the emulator on desktop operating systems. This is a well-known issue, and well documented on emulation sites, so there's no need for hysterics about maemo.org being awkward on this.
