"The X2Go Person"

About Me

My am a system administrator. I contribute to X2Go and various related/upstream open source projects in my free time. I just started contributing to some related areas in Fedora too.

In general, I find remote desktop to be very cool and I want it to be great part of the Linux OS. X2Go is my preferred remote desktop solution, but there are integration issues that X2Go needs to tackle with the help of Fedora, FreeDesktop.org, and the other open source remote desktop solutions that are actively maintained (TigerVNC, TurboVNC, SPICE, the RDP solutions, and the upcoming Arctica Project.)

Current Activities within Fedora

Working on Docker Files in Fedora for X2Go

Working on packaging GNOME Flashback

Answering questions from Flock in the upstream X2Go FAQ and wikipedia page on NX technology

I also fix various Fedora/EPEL integration bugs in upstream X2Go. (xinitrc.d script support, Published Apps, etc.) User:Orion maintains the Fedora/EPEL X2Go packages (and does an excellent job.)

Planned Activities within Fedora

Officially becoming an ambassador.

An "XSession Chooser" for VNC & XSpice.

TOSW

Helping with various Windows/Mac clients or tools to help people migrate to Fedora (e.g., liveusb-creator.)

Improving XSpice

Improving integration between Remote Desktop solutions and the Linux desktop in general

Possible Future Activities within Fedora

Making it easy/convenient for Java developers to create RPM packages from Maven instead of rpmbuild, and get them through the package review process with only data/metadata to review (no logic.)

An official suite of "Windows client apps" for Fedora.

Remote Desktop integration with Wayland.
