Interesting Sparta. I didn't realize you knew so much about Latin American politics and US foreign policy. Does your post reflect the jriver position with regard to this matter, or is it a bit of extrajurisdictional commentary? To me, it's important to understand if a company has endorsed a specific policy position offered by a person holding himself out as speaking for that company.
I'm also curious b/c I work for the US government, and am generally reluctant to offer sweeping and conclusiory policy analysis (especially on matters that I don't know wtf I'm talking about). I find adherence to this general rule especially appropriate on boards related to IT technical support.

An interesting post, in this topic anyway.
Am I the only one who finds it
just a bit ironic that in a thread essentially about the limiting of a voice or voices (I'm not arguing the sedition issue), some person, claiming to be from the US Govt is passively threatening both JRiver and Sparta and explicitly warning Sparta to "obey the rules".
Certainly Sparta is entitled to his opinion and whether or not you agree with it, how is it your position to silence him?
LaneNem, are you one of these "internet police" that is out there monitoring all of the boards, making sure all of the "rules" are being followed? You see, to me, it's important to understand if a person has endorsed a specific policy position, because then I know how seriously to take their posts.
