Honestly, I don't see how the end result of between EQEmu and EQC is different. Ultimately, the end result is that both of them play emulated EQ. EQC simply decided to work towards compatibility with only a single client and add special features and fixes to simulate a certain time period of EQ, where instead it could have been added to EQEmu as it supports multiple clients and multiple types of servers via rule sets and such.

No, that is not what I am saying. I am not familiar with the policies of this forum, so I figured it would best if I did not drop any names.
What I was trying to say is that a finished product from this project (EQEMU) lends very little to SoE. I am not really sure about the state of their game, so I cannot really comment on what they may potentially take away from this project, but I cannot imagine that a mirrored work would grant them much.
On the other hand, a finished product from EQC would be everything they need to open a new server for the thousands of players that have been petitioning them for a classic experience. I have not been to their forums lately, but I believe I remember seeing a two hundred or more page thread requesting a classic server. They could have a server up and running with our work in about an hour and this is something I would really like to avoid.
