Hi All,
I'm glad to introduce you a new X2Go feature - X2Go KDrive. X2Go KDrive is a new X-Server for X2Go, similar to Xephyr. It's based on the recent X.Org code and can run modern desktops and apps, like Gnome-3 and KDE-5. I uploaded some sources to our git repository. It's not a release or even testing version, just kind of review at the moment. We don't have any build system for it yet. However I wrote some instructions, which could help you to build it.
check our wiki page if you need more information:

Wow, I am astonished how tiny the code is compared to nxagent!
Can you tell us a bit more why you developed this? I mean, this drops the main advantages of NX vs VNC and RDP: efficient compression, low bandwidth support. Is this usable outside a LAN?
To save some development effort you could try to include the image compression/caching from nx-libs.
