Good news everyone.

I have taken over maintaining PyHoca-GUI's Windows builds.

In preparation for the upcoming release of PyHoca-GUI 0.5.0.0, a
preview build (pre02) is available to download under:
http://code.x2go.org/releases/binary-win32/pyhoca-gui/previews/0.5.0.0/

(Please ignore pre01. It contained bug #536, which I just fixed.)

It is based on commit 2cec5d3:
http://code.x2go.org/gitweb?p=pyhoca-gui.git;a=commit;h=2cec5d3bc9c4532fee129f5ac98b315e8d97b42c

You can read the changelog here:
http://code.x2go.org/gitweb?p=pyhoca-gui.git;a=blob;f=debian/changelog;h=1576b199c6e028af47392406e358fcc88a2fbebb;hb=2cec5d3bc9c4532fee129f5ac98b315e8d97b42c
(Scroll down to the bottom of 0.5.0.0 see all my Windows-specific changes)

The python-x2go code is based on commit 8d8f2a3
http://code.x2go.org/gitweb?p=python-x2go.git;a=commit;h=8d8f2a33636e84fcbf6657c13976de1b4e4ef972

You can read its changelog here:
http://code.x2go.org/gitweb?p=python-x2go.git;a=blob;f=debian/changelog;h=f685ff664f0325ad83149731c5c235834dac2448;hb=8d8f2a33636e84fcbf6657c13976de1b4e4ef972

The most notable bug I've run into is #535. It is not a regression
because it affects 0.4.0.8 too:
PyHoca-GUI: Windows: "The X2Go PulseAudio system could not be started."
http://bugs.x2go.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=535

The simple workaround for #535 is to delete this folder after every
time you run PyHoca-GUI:
%USERPROFILE%\.pulse

Enjoy and please send feedback.

As always, If you are certain that you have encountered a new bug,
follow these instructions for reporting it:

Otherwise, discuss your issue here before reporting it as a bug.
