Uhh.. Yes, that is Edict 63. The link is also in my sig..
If you're talking about what I said with corsairs/pirates and the under-the-table-ness at our freeports.. I don't think we'd be spewing out open transmissions going "hey Corsairs - come to our freeports! We have song and dance and all kinds of fun stuff!", or acting like that in front of people. Being open about it would be bad for house trade.
I think IMG freeports (due to their proximity to the houses) would more be like "You want to dock eh? I suggest you leave this area using this particular course which happens to pass right by our back dock where there is noone around.. Whoops! I accidently sat on the open docking door button! I hope nobody got in..." There's no solid proof that we are officially letting them in, but visiting lawful traders know they do at least somehow (whether by corrupt dockworkers or what) because they are seen in the corridors, bar, etc.. Hence the public view that ours are like Zoners - open to all - without the damaging implications to our house trade.
