[X2go-dev] Plugin building

Hi Alex,

Great, thanks. And why did it take months and heaps of discussions to
get this link?

Sorry, but have you ever checked out my little pyx2go project? It uses
only one SSH connection and it is dimensions faster than your client!
There's nothing impossible with forward/reverse tunnels and a shell on a
single connection!
> Q: Where is a git ????!!!!!!
> A: Coming soon. I promise.
Same statement came from Heinz on July 15th - can we expect to have GIT
in the beginning of next year? *LOL*

> Q: What is current status of project? What are you doing all this time?
> A: A lot of things. We are working hard to make x2go better.
Cool,and why don't you let others help you? Shall I fork it and develop
it from scratch or is there a little chance that my work is honoured and
I don't need to do all the work again but can help you??


Thanks for sharing the information and thanks that (again) nothing
changed. 

Jörg
