What does this mean for the rdp2vnc / libVNCserver project?
(http://sourceforge.net/projects/libvncserver)
Would it violate the XP EULA?

Microsoft might not be happy about it because with rdp2vnc
you could connect with a lot of non-Windows clients (as
long as they have a VNC client). One could even debate
whether TS CALs are needed with rdp2vnc, and that is
surely not something what Microsoft wants...
