[X2Go-Project] [X2Go-Dev] RfC: How should X2Go handle commercial offers/sponsorships and discussions related to that?

[Short, Kermit]

Hey, we need to get work done too!!

In all seriousness and honesty, I should note that my interests on this list are both personal for home use and professional.  I work for a federal nuclear research laboratory in the US.  If my participation here causes conflict, please let me know.

Thanks for making this statement in public. We have discussed this on
private chat recently and I am very glad that we are on the same track
regarding this!!!

Same, as Stefan said above for his company, applies to my company.
