 ===== Active X2Go Tasks/Features ===== ===== Active X2Go Tasks/Features =====
 +
 +==== Sponsored Improvement Requests ====
 +
 +We have received funding from an anonymous donor that wishes to see the following issues fixed/features added:
 +
 +=== Prio #1 (not started yet) ===
 +**Run multiple instances of X2GoClient**, or multiple sessions from one instance, all simultaneously (kind of how pyhoca-gui works) - must work on
 +  * Windows
 +  * OS X
 +  * Linux (probably already does)
 +
 +I would love to see X2GoClient gain the multi-session feature from PyHoCa.  In fact, the GUI design of the taskbar icon's context menu hasn't made sense from the start, if X2GoClient is and will always be
 +limited to one session.  
 +
 +If that is impossible, we need to make sure that multiple instances of x2goclient can co-exist in RAM.
 +Which will be a challenge for OS X.
 +
 +h1 has a design in mind that addresses multi-sesson support in one X2Go Client instance (also x2goclient2.git on git.x2go.org is capable of that, but at the moment it is half-baked and probably temporarily discontinued).
 +
 +Task assigned to: Mihai, Mihai, and again, Mihai
 +
 +=== Prio #2 (not started yet) === 
 +**Rebase the "Pulseaudio on Mac" code**
 +//Side note: You need to coordinate your efforts with Mike#2 regarding the microphone mute function.//
 +
 +Task assigned to: Mihai
 +
 +
 +**Improve x2go-broker functionality (shadowing, stable release)**
 +
 +Task assigned to: Mike#1
 +
 +
 +**Improve x2go-broker documentation**
 +
 +Task assigned to: Mike#1, Stefan
 +
 +
 +**General improvement on documentation**
 +
 +Task assigned to: Stefan, aided by Mike#1
 +
 +
 +**Alternative to NX-Rewrite**
 +h1 has some ideas what other F/LOSS codebases might be suitable as a time- and money-saving alternative to doing the NX-Rewrite.
 +He should mention them on x2go-dev to get more feedback, then a competent C/C++ coder should look at the alternatives and evaluate them for suitability.
 +
 +Task assigned to: <none yet> - could be Alex, Mihai, ...?
 +
 +=== Work in Progress ===
 +
 +**Infrastructure and procedures** for regularly releasing a new Mac client, at least in the next 1-3 years.
 +(jenkins build slave, cloud-based OS X hosting)
 +
 +Task assigned to: Stefan (currently researching hosting options); might be expanded to Mike#1, Mihai, Alex and Mike#2
