Hello Shane,

You may also publicly state, in a still PGP signed message,
that all the above was of course a *JOKE*, that you didn't need at all to read 
those specs to reverse-engineer basical informations such as the title name, 
it's length, etc...

More simply, you may also borrow the relevant code from an already existing, 
free, legally reverse-engineered implementation, as the one mentioned by 
Hetz... 
Provided you don't use "suspect knowledge" to modify those implementations, 
it's simply not your code, hence not your responsibility.
