Dear Tom Grimshaw, You're right, LL has no business telling you what software you can install and run on your own computer, they definitely shouldn't try to censor OSS, and they would look pretty despicable if they were trying to do that. Good thing they aren't doing that at all here isn't it? What they can do, is tell you what software they'll ALLOW to connect to THEIR service :) You are still perfectly free to choose what viewer to use and connect with Emerald to any other grid that still allows it. They aren't policing anything but their own service, which they are most certianly within their rights to do.
