Dear x2go users,
for the last months we've been working on a new release. First we thought to bring some new features, but now we'll bundle it, because there where many changes needed. It still will take some time to the release, but we wan't to inform you on some changes we are discussing. First of all: We are planing a multi session x2goclient for the release after the next release. So there will be a lot of work of redesigning our clients. This would be easier with only one client architecture and as the Qt client is our base for the Linux, Windows, Maemo and Mac OSX platforms, we are asking the question:
Would it be ok to focus our work on the Qt client and to stop/reduce our work on the GTK client?
Yes. I understand it's much work to work on two clients.
( But for the longer future I would advice to take a look at WxWidgeds. When you use that, you don't need to add a toolkit, because the original toolkit of the platform is used. )
Yes, there will be a Browser Plugin. It will be realized as a "sponsored development" so we'll get some money for our work and the sponsor will be named. You'll be able to integrate the plugin into a Website and you'll have all features of the x2goclient.
Nice to hear!
Yes there will be a "session sharing" option without the need of a LDAP server. The new "session sharing" option will make it possible to share a x2go session with another user, to share a already started xorg session with another user and to share a session with more than one user. There will be a system tray application which will help configuring the sharing settings.
Really great ;-)
After getting so many mails about a wiki for documentation - yes we are working on a wiki which will replace the odf/pdf/html manuals.
We are looking for new localisations. If x2goclient is not available in your language and you want to translate it, please let us know (on the list ). We'll provide a *.ts file for your language (qt-linguist).
I did this already for the Dutch language. The Dutch translation is in the GTK version, but not in the QT version. Are there problems with the translation?
We'll announce the the release here on the list and on our blog - at the moment we can't tell you when it'll be ready. So please stay tuned and tell us what you think about the news...
Success with the good work...
Met vriendelijke groet, Paul van der Vlis.
