"Nouveau is a community project that is working on producing open-source 3D display drivers for NVIDIA graphics cards. Nouveau is not affiliated with Nvidia Corp and is an X.Org project. While this project is still far from being completed, for this holiday special we are sharing some of our first thoughts on this project from our experience thus far. We would like to make it very clear, however, that the Nouveau driver is no where near completed and still has a great deal of work ahead for the 3D component. This article today will also hopefully shed some light on the advancements of this project so far."

Well, read about it, e.g. here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clean_room_design . This kind of reverse engineering is not forbidden (thus allowed) by law in most countries and nvidia has no way to forbid it AFIK.
