Hello Stefan,

Alex an I have discussed your feature request. Due to the huge
amount of features implemented in the past, x2goclient has grown
big and this way we are planning a rewrite of the client. This
means that the accepted patch would only live until this new
release and the whole work is lost.
:-( What's the expected release date for this new client? Are we
talking about a few weeks, a month, six months, a year?
We really can't say at the moment, but this step is definitely needed.
It will not be part of the upcoming release (baikal).

Well, don't get me wrong, I'm not trying to hurry you here. It's just that if you come to the conclusion that it will be, say, at least six months until this new client is released, I might even decide that the feature is important enough for me to pay for its addition twice - once in the current client and once in the upcoming one. Or maybe I'll stick with the current client (plus my paid-for patch) for a while, assuming it will still be compatible with the $NEXT_INCARNATION_AFTER_BAIKAL server.

So, is there a *minimum* time frame after the Baikal release where you can more or less guarantee that a new client will *not* be released, and old clients will continue to function with new server releases?

Kind regards,
Stefan
