Dear all,

the X2Go project is proud to announce the release of the X2Go
component ,,x2gobroker''.

New gains of this version of ,,x2gobroker'' are:

   o Add a package (x2gobroker-wsgi) that configures X2Go Session Broker with
     Apache2 via WSGI
   o Thorough separation of the X2Go Session Broker Authservice from  
the rest of
     the broker (authservice runs as root, the rest as unpriv user)
   o Many many bug fixes (reported mostly by Anders Bruun Olson, THANKS!)
   o Bug closures: 154 170 171 172 175 176 180

The X2Go Session Broker development is currently sponsored by  
Fletennet.dk. Thanks a lot to Kjetil Fleten!!!

Please note that the X2Go Session Broker is still under heavy  
development and a rather fresh project. Test it, but be also prepared  
for knowing what you do.
