Hi,

For those who want to play with it, there is an android version of
both winswitch and xpra in the works, you can find it here:
http://winswitch.org/beta/

Both have a number of major issues, most of which are recorded in
their respective bugtrackers, feel free to add more. (more details below)
Please bear in mind that this is a very early preview, it is
incomplete and buggy.

There is now also a pure Java swing client for winswitch (similar
limitations apply).
You can launch it with: "ant run" from the java source tree.

Thanks
Antoine


Some of the most noticeable bugs include:
* a cryptography problem causes connections to fail 50% of the time,
trying again will eventually get you connected. However this also
affects resuming sessions, and unfortunately this one fails silently..
* activities don't refresh, so you have to keep going back and forth
to see the screens update.. (ie: when connecting to a server)
* VNC is not supported yet
* Xpra windows can receive clicks (just about), but not key events
* you cannot start sessions from android
* the service stays running in the background until you kill it, using
your battery and network
etc...
