More information on X2Go:
=========================
Since 2005 there is a remote X project called X2Go. The main
development is located in Germany, however, the user community
currently is world-wide. The project has been very active during the
last couple of years.
Remote X with X2Go utilizes NX libraries for X compression, but the
connection mechanism is completely different from NoMachine NX /
FreeNX. People say it to be more secure as it does not need some dummy
user for initial SSH authentication. X2Go works over normal SSH
connection (user logs in via SSH, user can launch a session).
Unfortunately, the server side of X2Go might never make it into Debian
due to the great realm of criticism against nx-X11.
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=655699
However, the client-side is not touched of the discussion around
nx-X11 and it would be lovely to see X2Go client-side apps be
available for Debian wheezy.
One of the applications (x2goclient) has already been uploaded and is
available in wheezy with version 3.99.2.0.
However, another client exists: PyHoca-GUI. PyHoca-GUI is based on an
X2Go client API written in Python: Python X2Go. With Python X2Go you
can easily launch X2Go based remote desktop sessions in a five-liner:
http://code.x2go.org/doc/python-x2go/x2go.session-module.html
Python X2Go has also lately been integrated with the software preview
feature in Ubuntu's Software Center by Stéphane Graber.
The advantage of PyHoca-GUI and Python X2Go towards the legacy
x2goclient (x2goclient was the first client on the market) is that
PyHoca-GUI fully supports multi-sessions and multi-server connections.
It targets at power users (like sysadmins or other folks of people who
work on several machines at the same time). The only application part
visible on is a tiny system tray icon. The look'n'feel resemble the
nm-applet (GNOME network-manager applet) look'n'feel.
Also, the LinDix company in the Netherlands contracted me (as I am
packager and part of upstream in one person) to customize the software
for an SaaS solution.
PyHoca-GUI is (since that contract) also capable to integrate a
remote-X2Go-Server application menu in the system tray of a local
desktop. Simply blending in some server-side (published) applications
into your local desktop.
Hopefully, someone has got interested in this piece of software (and
in X2Go) now... We (the X2Go upstream project) would love to see as
many components in next Debian stable.
Greets + thanks for your time,
Mike

Hi Mike,
I'm closing this RFS now because there is currently no package to sponsor.
Feel free to reopen this RFS when the package is back at mentors.
Regards,
Bart Martens
