OK, thanks,  so i have to wait for the upgrade...  so far, my two winswitches on two distant ubuntus dont see each other as these should through mdns (without any need for configuration) as far as i have understood . But may be this is because virtualbox VMs are designed to communicate only through RDP or VNC on the appropriate port (i opened 5010 on my firewall and could connect to it using rdesktop) , this is the naive question i was asking to myself...any comment on that ?

 Hello,
I'm not sure sending to the correct mailing list...My first question is: does xpra and winswitch work to provide a  remote desktop of a virtual machine?In my case it's a kubuntu VM (virtualbox in another linux host system) and i successfully installed xpra and winswitch both server and client side which is also an ubuntu 14.04 remote system (it's just for testing purpose).
 i just apt-get installed the xpra and winswitch versions available in ubuntu , is that all right or should i really follow the instructions here to add the repositories? :
