We have a pool of ideas that will be started working on some time in the future. Anyone who wants to start working on those ideas is welcome to contact us via IRC or the x2go-dev mailing list.

View our brainstorm pool for X2Go here.

We have received funding from an anonymous donor that wishes to see the following issues fixed/features added:

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

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, …?

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
