Thanks for documenting these, Mike; I read them with great interest.
Toward the end, you write, "Setting the command to RDP will turn X2Go
into an RDP proxy (RDP via NX). RDP will receive a peformance
improvement on WAN connections"

In our experience, this is true for RDP5 but it significantly degrades
the native performance of RDP6 and RDP7.  For those wishing to use RDP6
or 7 with Windows XP, TSPlus (www.tsplus.net) makes an XP RDP6/7 client
and distributes it freely.

I would love to see mimebox included in x2goclient.  I know we had
planned to write a "multimedia player" to automatically redirect to
mimebox similar to the way printing works but have not gotten around to
it - still overwhelmed by a large consulting contract completely outside
of X2Go :(  Thanks again - John
