The VNC software and RFB protocol are maintained by RealVNC Ltd, including 
allocation of numbers for new encodings, etc.  I've passed on your request for 
allocation of some encoding numbers for your project, and we'll get back to you 
shortly.

The Tight encoding was designed by Const Kaplinsky as part of the TightVNC 
project  - I think Adam is simply suggesting that any proposed changes to that 
encoding need to be OK'd by Const, rather than break compatibility with his 
project.
