We all agree that LW is not responsible for the actions of it's users, and has done a great deal to counter "piracy."

However, LW.com is a US organization, and the chilling effects on speech and development have been witnessed here as predicted by the EFF's lawyers. LW has not made any public comment, though several news outfits have asked.

We don't know exactly what LW will decide to do in response to the D&C letter widely reported several weeks ago, but as you should have realized by now, FrostWire is about preserving, maintaining, and developing the goals of limewire.org

Mark Gorton publicly said, just before the SCOTUS decision re Grokster, that the limewire opensource code could not be stopped.

If you want me to dig up the links so you can catch up, let me know.

Hope your new job is working to your satisfaction, and that your many welcome contributions to the code and .org website can be preserved.
