I think you misinterpreted me Fabian.

What I was asking was about the inital response to the NX 2.x changes by NX,
not FreeNX. I seem to faintly remember something of this nature around that
time, but unfortunately I cannot find the reference to it now. Perhaps I was
just misinterpreting it at the time.

I myself am not paranoid about it, I've always been under the impression that
NoMachine supported FreeNX's activities. :)
