Hi Brian,

Since this had been a "future" development discussion a while back (re possible use of HTML5 in x2go) I thought I'd pass this on.
Just stumbled on this announcement of noVNC (LGPL3) and saw they now implement HTML 5 (websockets and canvas)
Thank you very much. I'm still looking for a good approach how to use the features of the "webcanvas". As you all know, vnc updates squares on the the screen, no matter what they show. The only trigger is, that there has changed something inside. The webcanvas has got capabilities of drawing primitives too. This way it could be possible to draw window manager and toolkit elements directly with code. Maybe it would be an idea to investigate time on that, because I still believe that one of the biggest advantages of nx is that it is possible to use the local Display-Technique/X-Server as rendering base. Nevertheless - I haven't found a complete X-Server on javascript base and I still don't know if it is already possible... Mabye we should a page on our wiki with collected links regarding this topic (future technologies?).
Best Regards,
Heinz
Good idea Heinz as it saves "I am sure I ready about something before :)"
Thanks, Phil
