Hi all,

thanks to Stefan we have another puzzle piece for making X2Go the  
non-plus-ultra solution for people offering Linux-SaaS.

There now is a new session mode called ,,Published Applications'',  
sponsored by Stefan Baur.

I have had a quick test look at the functionality, so here is a  
feedback list, also about other issues that I stumble upon while  
testing:

  - I use a dark Qt color theme, with a dark color theme some elements of
    x2goclient are hardly readable on screen:
      - session profile cards (right column of the screen=
      - all buttons (suspend, new, terminate, etc.)
      - also the button that allows me to launch a published application is
        not readable on screen with my dark theme
      - when minimizing x2goclient to systray, I see an icon with transparent
        background and black contours on a black system tray. Thus, I actually
        see nothing...

   - Published applications: Some menu entries have icons, some do not. Where
     do icons come from? Are they transferred from the server? Or are they
     used from the client-side file system?

   - x2goclient is configure _not_ to minimize into the systray. After
     establishing a published application session I see for buttons in the
     center of the blue window area of x2goclient. The buttons do not fit in
     there (they overlap).

   - Is there a concept for evaluating i18n parts of desktop files? Application
     links appear in English still.

   - Alex, whenever we are about to release the new code, we should make a call
     for translation, so that i18n files are updated with the new version

So much from the testing front here...

BTW: x2goserver installs and uninstalls/purges fine, I added the code  
in a rush this lunch time, but it seems to work well.

Mike
