-==== Interface between LightDM's remote login feature and X2Go Session Broker ==== 
- 
-  * The remote login feature in LightDM uses UCCS for session brokerage. The UCCS is a very public service. The main caveat is: UCCS offers to store user passwords and these passwords (at time of Ubuntu 12.10 and Ubuntu 13.04) get stored in plaintext at Canonical (or at least can be easily unhashed). A site admin surely would love to have such a web portal as UCCS at hand, so that the remote login feature can be used on the local network without Canonical as the brokerage provide in the loop. 
-  * This code project is to provide a drop-in replacement for the Ubuntu package ''lightdm-remote-session-uccsconfigure'' that replaces UCCS with the X2Go Session Broker as session brokerage provide 
-  * The users shall then be able to use LightDM's remote login feature to launch X2Go and RDP sessions. The session profiles will be provided by the X2Go Session Broker 
-  * Versatile skills are needed for this: C, Cplusplus, XML, JSON, Python.
