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). | 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). | ||

+ | If budget remains, a HTML5 client would be nice. | ||

+ | //There seems to be a disagreement amongst the developers regarding how such a client should be implemented.// | ||
+ | - One option would be to copy what other remote solutions are using - which means sub-par performance compared to our native NX/X2Go speeds. | ||

h1 has some ideas what other F/LOSS codebases might be suitable as a time- and money-saving alternative to doing the 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. | 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. |
