>From my point of view:
Origionally, there was an AT&T lab in the UK that started developing vnc.
After the lab closed, the development is taken over by Real VNC.
Somewhere on the line, TightVNC split off to do what they want to do with
it.

At this point in time, I see it as follows:
RealVNC sticks to the origional and provides a realy good, rock solid vnc
implementation that works on all platforms, where only the platforms are the
limitation.

TightVNC is one of the development split-offs. These split-offs develop
stuff like new compression algorithms, some security aditionals. THese kind
of like to all platforms. Then there are also split-offs that develop
aditional features at the cost of support for roughly half the target
platforms.
