Hi, Is Java a hard requirement? I have C# bindings written for a large portion of FreeRDP, you can definitely use them as a basis: https://github.com/FreeRDP/FreeRDP-Sharp
Those bindings are enough to have a RemoteFX connection performed from C#. With a complete C# client you could have a consistent client across platforms that takes advantage of the FreeRDP native libraries. As for paying someone to work on that, I could consider it, depending on project requirements. I personally wish to see the C# client go forward. Contact me offline if you're interested.
