  ==== Access X2Goserver Sessions via HTML5 Client ====
    * It's difficult for the X2Go Project to offer clients on a number of mobile devices lacking an X.Org server and with rules that make it very difficult to submit GPL'ed software to their ecosystems.
    * An HTML5 Client could help to build native apps and render sessions on a [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canvas_element|HTML5 Canvas]]
    * In the first step, it would be possible to use existing vnc<->canvas proxies like [[http://kanaka.github.com/noVNC/|noVNC]] or
[[http://guac-dev.org/|Guacamole]].

+ ==== Upgrade GLX extension in NX (redistributed) ====
+   * With Ubuntu 12.10, Canonical has dropped Unity-2d support
+   * Starting with Ubuntu 12.10, Unity requires a modern Xserver with GLX v8 included
+   * The weakness of X2Go definitely is the NX Xserver used for display server session on the client
+   * This coding project would be a start to gradually update the Xserver extensions shipped with NX
+ 
+ ==== X2Go Desktop Applet ====
+   * Status quo: for several desktop the X2Go project offers a desktop integration (=binding) package
+   * One that can be used as a template and reference is the package: plasma-widget-x2go. It provides a Plasma widget that can dock into KDE4's panel and this widget then gives you control over your X2Go session
+   * Unfortunately, the Plasma X2Go widget is for KDE4 only and of no use to users GNOME, Unity, XFCE, etc.
+   * The idea: create a desktop independent applet that docks into the systems systray
(or into the appindicator area). This applet then gives you control over your X2Go session from inside the X2Go session: unmount client-side folder, manage print job, suspend X2Go session, grant permission for desktop sharing, etc.
+   * Please use the tools ''plasma-widget-x2go'' and ''x2godesktopsharing'' as reference and as a start point (yes, the development should be in Qt4)
