Hi Gerry,
I donated 10 pounds and tested the current payed XMing code. However that code crashes almost as frequently as the GPL code. If you start a session with XMing and move your mouse a bit around, the X-server crashes (on Windows 7). I haven't tested on Windows XP or Vista.
As I have written before, the python client will have a configurable X-server, so vcxsrv would certainly be tested!
Cheers, Dick Kniep
