iPad - Test Platform
--------------------
I cannot speak for Alex, but I remember the last time when a major  
problem about X2go  development for Mac was the loss (theft) of Alex's  
MacBook.

With an iPad the situation is probably similar: no hardware - i.e.  
iPad - to test on available at all.

Would it be a possibility to provide an iPad for testing/development?

AppStore and GPL software
-------------------------
There also has been an issue around AppStore and GPL in January 2011:

If there will be an X2goClient for iPad in the future it will surely  
need a distribution pathway. How would that work? (I am not at all  
familiar with Macs, but may I bring up the question nonetheless?).

Greets,
Mike
