[X2go-dev] xming and x2go

It would seem logical that an open-xming project would be needed by more than just x2go community. 

There must be others depending on that code that could be enjoined to help update the existing xming open source ?

As we are looking for a solution on this problem too, I really would be 
interested in your ideas. As Xming is not free available on XOrg 7* 
base, this is a big issue for future development. 

Maybe someone knows about a third X-Server for Windows? 

best regards, 

Heinz

The only idea that comes to mind is to grab the Xming sources that have 
been released under GPL and build our own X-server. Other than that you 
just have to wait a while until Xming finally moves this latest code 
down into the GPL state. Probably around a year or so. I don't see any 
other options. And for those who don't mind paying for an Xming license 
they can always use the latest code immediately until it finally hits GPL. 

Regards, 
Gerry

I have just installed http://sourceforge.net/projects/vcxsrv/ to try it out with X2GO but unfortunately it would appear xming is hard coded somewhere. Is there any way to override it so that I can test with this xserver ?
