So adding Christophe for his thoughts…
Opaque seems to be more an oVirt client than a SPICE client, so I'd tend to think it would be a better fit as an oVirt project. aSPICE would fit well together with other SPICE repositories, dunno if these are the same code base or not (?). > On Jan 5, 2015, at 13:38 , Tomas Jelinek <tjeli...@redhat.com> wrote: > > > > One more question - does aSPICE support spice proxy? > > libgovirt is not parsing the proxy information at this point, so answer would be no.
