Ok! Great!

PPC is not so interesting to us, I guess. x86 and x86_64 should get  
the main focus.

That would be sufficient for our first test loops.

The source tree is pretty much vanilla NX, but the patch list is long  
and those patches only get applied on (a) building the packages for  
Debian/Ubuntu or (b) when I roll the tarballs you find under this URL:
http://code.x2go.org/releases/source/nx-libs/

It's such a gift that you give your time to this!!!

Thanks,
Mike
