X2Go: The Spread 2021.5
This is the replacement event for X2Go: The Gathering 2021, which had to be cancelled due to illness of several core members.
Location: 100% online
Date: 2022-11-28 to 2022-12-02
Event type: 5 days, but evening-only - starting around 18:00 CET, with one or two short talks/presentations (around 20-30 minutes each), followed by discussions, jointly working on open tasks, bugsquashing, “open coding”
Sponsorship: As this is a purely virtual event, we are not in need for event sponsors. However, X2Go could still use some more donations to cover hosting costs, so if you have a few $$$/€€€/£££ to spare, you can find our donation forms here:

Agenda for tonight
- Try out/set up streaming and recording equipment (Stefan, Juri)
- probably either work on X2Go-TCE/X2Go-TCE-Pi or discuss hosting options, depending on who actually shows up
A separate, virtual event called X2Go: The Spread 2022 will take place from 2022-12-12 to 2022-12-16 (i.e. roughly two weeks from 2021.5). Details for that event can be found here.
Why another virtual event?
We were monitoring the Covid-19 situation very closely and had hoped for a chance to host a real-life or hybrid event in early July, as the earlier forecasts (e.g. this one) seemed to indicate a low incidence by then. Sadly, once the BA.5 variant of Covid-19 took over, the forecasts had to be updated, leaving us with no other chance than to go fully virtual again, as you can see here.
What's that name all about?
As our idea of running an annual hacktrain had to be cancelled permanently back in 2014, we chose the name “X2Go: The Gathering” for the new type of annual event we hosted since then. This year, the spread of the of the Corona virus around the globe and across Germany makes it impossible for us to gather safely, which is why we are meeting virtually instead, while being physically spread out across the real world.
Also, for everyone actively taking part in the event, please be prepared to show your favorite breakfast spread while on camera. ;)
Unsorted list of topics/ideas (not final, open to suggestions)
- Migrate to Gitlab
- Work on / Release X2Go-TCE on Raspberry Pi
- OSUOSL POWER Systems upgrade (virtual hardware as well as software)
- X2Go Broker Demo Environment/LDAPS
- Fixing some IPv6 and Tor oddities in the client
X2Go-TCE-Live
- buster and bullseye feature branches should be copied to code.x2go.org (ToDo Juri)
- We should agree on a new branch structure for it, but this doesn't really make sense before we're on Gitlab
Server infrastructure
- needs to be discussed with h1, m#1, ionic and Juri present
Gitlab migration
- mellum (hot for gitlab repo) seems to be down? Investigating the cause. (Juri, ionic)
