In article <54348@iuvax.cs.indiana.edu> bobmon@iuvax.cs.indiana.edu
(RAMontante) asks, "how compatible are LIM 3.2 and EEMS with LIM 4.0?"

Largely, EEMS is upward compatible with LIM EMS 3.2, and LIM EMS 4.0 is
upward compatible with them both.

If an application asks only for EMS software, any of the three should
do.  If it asks for EMS 4.0, you *may* be able to get by with EEMS,
since most of the big changes in 4.0 were adopted from EEMS.  (EEMS was
created by a competing triumvirate.)
