Hi,

maybe the EGL bits, if you plan to support hardware accelerated
graphics on clients, but I think that's optional. Hardware accelerated
clients will basically give you an EGLImage in the server, which you
usually turn into GL textures.

As for the language bindings, this might be of interest to comment on:
