Hi,

I have been making regular releases of an "enhanced xpra" here:
http://winswitch.org/src/
You can find debian packages on this site too. This is the version used
by FreeBSD, amongst others. I have also made ebuilds for Gentoo and RPMs
for a number of distributions.
Please also note that "winswitch" (the software on this site) will not
work with xpra upstream because it lacks some required features.

Here is a short summary of the enhancements I added:
* jpeg compression support (patch was not mine)
* minor version mismatch support (only refuses clients connections when
protocol has actually changed)
* --password-file option (useful for securing --bind-tcp)
* compile fix for Fedora (and maybe others)
* python style fixes (from pydev lint warnings)
* forced client disconnection (prevents ghost windows)
* --no-pulseaudio option
* --no-clipboard option
* simple GUI launcher
* win32 build files
* better OSX support
etc

As for the keyboard mapping issues, I am aware of the problem and
although winswitch does try to workaround the mapping issues this is a
hard problem to solve and I have recently found new issues caused by the
workarounds.. Time permitting, I will take another look at this.

Cheers
Antoine
