1) Cowardice?
The reason stated in that interview was:
"XoloX is discontinued, partially to the lack of funds and partially to the increased threat for law-suits. "
The original team worked hard to make a great client for the community with their free time, did that mean they had to risk their careers with a law-suit that could bankrupt their hobby? They have come back, I don't see how you can call them cowards.
2) "Xolox are still doing a KaZaA(Altnet) and working to their own agenda"
The word
still requires XoloX do have done that in the first place. Please get your facts straight and do not confuse XoloX for KaZaa.
You bring up that we should commend Vinnie for reaching out - that is appreciated. And you also note Vinnie has gotten a bad wrap in forums - none of our business. I think Vinnie can speak for himself , don't know why you choose to speak for him?
I don't know what you are trying to get at - but XoloX will always remain Spyware free, free to users, and NEVER trick users to installing something they don't wish to or know about.
